Coach Maurice: On going back to the lines he started the game with yesterday. Mindset ahead of this home and home series against the Blues. Getting everyone on the ice today. Does he get a sense early in a game when his best players aren’t gonna be his best players that game? On Kyle Connor adjusting to the 4th line when moved there. The upcoming stretch of games. When might Steve Mason play next? On the play of Tucker Poolman. On setting the all time loss record.

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.
