Winnipeg Jets coach Paul Maurice scrum

Coach MauriceWill Ondrej Pavelec play tomm?  Would he back up if he doesn’t start?  His thoughts on Al Montoya’s six games in a row.  Did his effort get overlooked in last night’s game?  His re-assessment of the game a day removed.  Using this stretch for next season?  Is he working as if he is here for next season?  Will he put Setoguchi back in tomm?  What has he learned about Bryan Little?

Coach’s Quote:

On Pavelec’s status: “If he comes in tomorrow and feels as good as he does today than he is the starter so we will just list him as probable.”

On Setoguchi status: “I haven’t made the decision.  I will tell you that I like the way our lineup played….that’s the danger for anybody who comes out of the lineup. Is that the group catches fire or they play a great game”.

On Bryan Little:  “I have been so impressed with his work ethic.  He is not a huge guy out there, but he competes and he plays hard and he gets stronger as the game goes and he is a smart player and he has got good hands”.
