Coach Maurice – Initial thoughts on Stempniak and where he sees him fitting in. Is Blake’s position an example of guys sacrificing? Was he aware that the team is projected to win the Cup in 2019? What does having Wheeler on the 3rd line do for the development of a player like Lowry? How does he approach the Ottawa game? On having players who have patience with management. On players realizing team wasn’t where they needed to be (a few years back) and having patience. How much coaching does he do with the guys he counts on to be leaders at this point in the season?
