Winnipeg Jets coach Paul Maurice pre-game scrum (Hurricanes)

Coach Maurice scrum topics:  On the high scoring games from last night.  On success being connected to age.  What does he like about what Bill Peters does as a coach?  Why Connor Hellebuyck for game 1?  How did he get to his starting lineup?  Expectations on Patrik Laine’s debut?  How difficult is the role they are asking Josh Morrissey to play? On having a Finnish player like Laine in the lineup (presumably asked by Finnish media).  Do younger players put more expectations on themselves to succeed quicker?

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.
