Winnipeg Jets coach Paul Maurice pre-game scrum

Coach MauriceOn Jacob Trouba’s progression.  Has he been cleared for contact?  Bryan Little and Evander Kane just maintenance?  Will Trouba skate in a normal jersey in a regular practice?  What made this a good start for Pavelec?  Did he want Hutchinson in against Chicago?  Does he get excited to coach against a coach like Ruff?  Growth in Blake Wheeler’s game.  Does he pay attention to the standings (knowing that Stars sit seven back of them)?  Next step in his development?

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.
