FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — Paul Maurice spent his summer on a Canadian lake. Its location would be best described as in the middle of nowhere. The coach of the Stanley Cup champion Florida Panthers typically would have morning coffee with his wife, either on the dock or inside the screened-in porch. Sometimes it lasted 30 minutes. Sometimes it lasted for hours. And he loved the quiet. He's back home now, rested and ready. His third season with the Panthers starts Thursday when training camp formally opens and he tries to defend a title for the first time.
