Coach Noel spoke to the media prior to the team departing for Toronto.

Coach Noel –  Injury update (Discussed Montoya).  Going with same lineup. Play of Ondrej Pavelec.  Inter-conference play builds rivalries.  Preparing for the Leafs, different because of their situation?  Keeping focus short term.  Phyiscal edge to the Jets play.  Improvement of Zach Bogosian.  Play of the lines together.  Not using the 4th line, concerning?  With Slater out, who becomes go to face off guy?  James Wright under the radar?  (coach made an interesting comparison to Guy Carbonneau who went from being offensive in AHL to defensive specialist in the NHL).

Working hard on a daily basis to provide the latest Winnipeg Jets and Manitoba Moose news for our readers and listeners. 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.
