The Jets players and team brass have arrived in Finland and are chatting with the media as they prepare for the Panthers in the Global Series.

Audio:

Patrik Laine

Coach Maurice: What is his goal for this week? On the progress he expects from Laine? Did he see what he wanted when he moved Laine with Lowry? Is there value to having Laine in Finland? What are the next couple of days like for him and the staff? Will he get together with the Florida staff? Has he been to Helsinki before? Selling the game globally. On the Leafs game and getting back to their identity.

GM Kevin Cheveldayoff: What does it mean for the Jets organization to be in Finland? What did he learn from the Blackhawks trip? On what it means for Patrik Laine to be in Finland? Is the disruption to the schedule worth it? On the work to get done. What he remembers the first time he watched Laine in Finland. What stood out about Laine’s game at that time? On the state of Laine’s game right now.

Up next:

The Jets will have Monday off before they hit the ice on Tuesday for practice at Hartwall Arena.

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.
