Audio:
Blake Wheeler: Was there any indication that the penalties would be called like that? On getting to a happy medium of penalties. Is the intent of the rules a good thing? What are the biggest challenges of a game when half the game is special teams? On adjusting to the guidelines. What did he like from last night? Did he like the way his line played last night? On the passing ability of his line.
Mathieu Perreault: On the penalties being called. On the slash he got last year. Does it go on more than we know? Will it be a tough transition to adjust to the rule? On the importance of special teams. On the chance he had in OT. On the new look power play. Opening up room.
Coach Maurice: How does he teach Kyle Connor with less time on the ice? What are some of the things he is looking for from Tyler Myers? Where did the Jets miss Myers the most? Looking forward to the internal competition among the D? What did he think of Ben Chiarot’s game and camp? What would Ben Chiarot’s identity look like? What is key for Chiarot’s mindset as he sits outside the top six? What has he learned about Michael Sgarbossa? What can the taste of the NHL last season do for Jack Roslovic? What does his club learn from a night last night (re: penalties)? Any insight into tomorrow’s lineup? Who starts?
