Winnipeg Jets coach Paul Maurice pre-game scrum

Coach Maurice – On Kane having surgery.  Where does the team go from here?  On the timeline of Kane going from ready to play to coach’s decision to should surgery, what happened?  Does he think the situation that happened between the players led to the surgery decision?  On facing the Hawks.  Did Evander Kane choose not to play Tuesday night?  What does he want to see from Michael Hutchinson’s game?  More of a need for team improvement?  On having a losing record without Kane, does he feel confident they can win?  Where does the confidence come from?  Concern that information leaked to the media from the room.  Does he believe that Evander would be welcomed back to the locker room by his teammates?  Why was Kane getting back into the lineup this time different than when he was last scratched?  Is he comfortable the way things were handled on Tuesday?  It is possible that the team lost the player, was it handled properly?  How needed is a game tonight to change the focus?  Was there any other punishment handed out to any other players?  Is Dusting Byfuglien at forward a long term option?
