Coach Maurice:  Starting off the road trip with a win/play of Laine line.  Did he like the way they played over 60 minutes?  Did he feel like they did a good job keeping the Hurricanes to the outside?  Play of Chairot/Morrow.  What faceoff success can do for the team.  Preparing for Staal.  Playing Myers/Kulikov with the Scheifele line.
