Winnipeg Jets coach Paul Maurice pre-game scrum

Coach Maurice –  What is the status of Mark Scheifele. What was his reaction when he heard from the doctor yesterday? On the goalie rotation. On the tweaks to his lineup. On making the goals they are scoring count. Is there a confidence with this team? Does he regret starting Pavelec in a back to back and the makeup of his OT line that got scored against. Would he be comfortable playing Pavelec in the second game of a back to back in the future? Has Wheeler’s game changed that he can be better defensively with Ladd and Little. On the Kane/Byfuglien pairing with Perreault.

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.
