Stanley Cup champion Paul Maurice says he hopes for “the Winnipeg Jets to win the next Stanley Cup”

The Florida Panthers won their first ever Stanley Cup championship this evening as they defeated the Edmonton Oilers 2-1 in game 7. While the game itself was a good one, the focus after the contest was on comments made by former Jets head coach Paul Maurice towards his old team.

He was asked about his time in Winnipeg and then he said this:

“If I could have one thing more it would be for the Winnipeg Jets to win the next Stanley Cup.”

If you didn’t see it here is the video:

In addition to Paul Maurice, former associate coach Jamie Kompon picked up his second Cup while former Jets Dmitry Kulikov and Kevin Stenlund also won.

I also appear on the Illegal Curve Hockey Show every Saturday on our YouTube channel as well as the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show after every single Jets game. And I occasionally jump in the play-by-play booth at Canada Life to provide colour analysis during Manitoba Moose games.
