Winnipeg Jets coach Claude Noel pre-game press conference

Coach Noel put the players through a brisk warm-up today prior to the game against the Penguins:

Coach NoelNice little haircut preamble.  Avoiding the run and gun style of the Penguins.  Better defence from his team.  Kyle Wellwood’s consistency.  Considering Redmond?  Is this a measuring stick game?  Referencing last season’s Penguin games.  Do the players have more confidence?  Mark Scheifele talk.  Does he consider Pavelec’s history against the Penguins when considering who to start?

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.
