Winnipeg Jets coach Paul Maurice post-game press conference (Stars)

Topics:  On the game.  Did the guys get the win for Ladd?  Players who play at Ladd’s level.  On the level of emotion from the players on Ladd leaving this team.  On what Ladd has taught the young players on the team.  Where does this leave this team in terms of winning now and long term?  On winning with the youth of this team.  Armia’s goal.  Any thoughts on Marko Dano coming into the lineup?

Coach Quotes:

– Coach Maurice says about two hours before game he got notice that something could be happening. At 6:45 pm league conference call finished.

– There was no possible way that we could have Ladd leave our team and not sign him at end of year. We couldn’t survive that.”
