Winnipeg Jets coach Paul Maurice pre-game scrum

Coach MauriceWhat does he expect from the Flyers?  What will it mean to have Mark Stuart back in the lineup?  Any concern with having nine healthy defencemen?  How does he manage having that many blueliners?  Might he put Postma up front in an emergency situation?  Galiardi’s status?

Quotes:

On what Stuart means – “He’s a leader in our room.  He defines our attitude and how we want to play”

On having nine healthy defencemen – “You can never, ever have enough healthy defencemen.  We have certainly seen the extreme polar opposite of that in the game against San Jose at home.  Going from five to nine ready to play is a nice change.”

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.
