Coach Maurice:  Getting the group ready prior to the Christmas break.  Status of Blake Wheeler?  On why the team didn’t skate today.  On athletes performing well in afternoon contests.  On schedule and allowance for practice.  What is the approach for the Islanders?  On the bunching at the top of the Western Conference.  Who will play tomorrow in net?  Importance of getting Steve Mason in goal.

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.
