Game 64: Wild 6 Jets 5 post-game report

A wild one at the MTS Centre as the Jets fought back to tie the game at five after falling down 5-2 but with 2:10 left in the 3rd period a defensive breakdown by Winnipeg allowed Minnesota to put this one away.  That was the fourth time this season (out of four games) that the Wild have beaten the Jets.

Jets Audio:

Blake Wheeler

Mark Scheifele

Mathieu Perreault

Coach Maurice:  What can he do to help Hellebuyck not let that one “get to him”?  What went wrong defensively?  Did he feel the break played into the game at all?  How do they fix the goals against?  On young players playing the right way defensively, when can he lean on them?  When does he switch with this group and hold them accountable so they play the right way defensively?

Wild audio:

Erik Haula

Darcy Kuemper

Coach Boudreau:  On the team showing heart to get the win.  On the players they lost and how that impacted the game.  What has he thought of Ryan White’s game since he joined the Wild?  What is the Suter situation?  On being the last team in the NHL to pull their goalie.  Is he comfortable with Kuemper’s play?  His feelings after the Jets fourth goal. Trade deadline.  On the Wild penalty kill.
