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

Coach Maurice – On how Blake Wheeler is doing today.  Thoughts after looking back on last night’s game.  Is there a little more to the game against the Canucks than normal?  On being able to leave the Blues game in the past and moving forward.  Same lineup?  Same goalie?  How did he decide on Hutchinson for tonight?  The change in circumstances since last time the team was in Vancouver.  How does this March compare to last year? (playoff chase).  On controlling emotions.  Did the off ice drama (last time in Vancouver) represent a turning point?  Pressure on the team.  Is a pre-game talk from the coach different now?  Challenges he sees from Vancouver.  What has he seen the evolution in Pavelec’s game?

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.
