Winnipeg Jets coach Paul Maurice pre-game scrum

Coach Maurice –  Enthusiasm of the Czech players.  How much input did he have in this acquisition?  What was his thought process on putting Tlusty on 2nd line and Byfuglien back to defence?  On the final stretch, is this a gauge of where his team is?  Any different way to approach this game against Blues as it is one of four?  On the players they’ve brought in (Stafford, Tlusty) and playing for contracts.  What does it do for the mood of the group when a move like this is made?  What does he hope to see from O’Dell?  Is there a common language on the structure he is implementing that Tlusty can understand?

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.
