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

Coach Maurice – Importance of getting veterans into earlier pre-season games.  What would he like to see from the prospect players who are playing back-to-back.  Is there any room for him to assess the other team’s prospects?  How would he evaluate camp to date?  Are the 2nd and 3rd year prospects (Lowry, Scheifele, Trouba) taking leadership roles?  How does he know when a young player is ready for more responsibility?  On team fitness.  Any rhyme or reason why he chose the five players to play tonight who played last night?  .

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.
