Winnipeg Jets coach Claude Noel post-practice audio

Jets coach Claude Noel spoke to the media at the IcePlex today as he gets his team ready for the New York Rangers.

Coach Noel – Jim Slater injured and is week-to-week (upper body injury). Patrice Cormier called up, what he brings. Loss of Jim Slater. Taking Burmistrov out of the lineup. Best game on home ice last night, keeping that consistency. Physical nature of play. Thorburn fight and team responds. Wellwood back in the lineup. Are the Jets a tough team to play against? How tough a role is it to play the role that Thorburn did last night against Orr. Do players need to be instructed when to fight and when not to?

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.
