Winnipeg Jets coach Claude Noel press conference

Players had the day off today but coach Noel spoke with the media about a number of topics.

Coach Noel  – Team came off road trip healthy.  Keeping things in perspective.  Status of Miettinen.  Wellwood’s status. Will Wellwood be moved as a result of success of Wheeler/Kane.  Byfuglien’s playing minutes and consistency.  What has changed in Buff’s game?  Talks about the Capitals.  Three games in how confident is he?  Response when lineup changes work out?  Jokinen/Kane/Wheeler – bona fide 1st line?  Antropov/Little/Ladd line success.  Importance of keeping emotional balance.  Assessment of Jokinen’s play.  Play of Paul Postma.  Thoughts on Mark Scheifele.  Preparation for Penguins.
