Brendan Lemieux has been known to walk a fine line — and occasionally cross it — when it comes to physical play.
But Winnipeg Jets head coach Paul Maurice believes better discipline is among a number of improvements the 22-year-old has made this year.
“All parts of his game are stronger. He’s physically stronger, so he drives a little faster. Gets off the wall. He’s got a real interesting mix there of belligerence, maybe, and a really quick release and a good shot. He can make some plays. For Brendan, in order to play his game, you have to be in really good shape.
