After three decades behind NHL benches, Paul Maurice finally reached the top of the coaching mountain last spring when his Florida Panthers held off the Edmonton Oilers to win the Stanley Cup.
Maurice visited with Neil and Vic Friday to discuss his long history as a coach, several recent acquisitions, preparing to defend the title and then...as the interviewed wrapped up, there was another piece of business the coach had to attend to.
There's also some unpacking to the trade deadline both from player and team perspectives as well as a discussion on growth of Ottawa Captain Brady Tkachuk.
