6/10/202619 min
Jamie Dodd and Thomas Drance take a closer look at Caleb Malhotra’s draft profile and debate whether the talented OHL center is the right fit for the Canucks at third overall. The guys also discuss why the coaching connection complicates the conversation and why Vancouver may have to trust its scouts if Malhotra is the pick. Plus, more reaction to the Oilers’ reported interest in Mike Babcock and why his potential return remains one of the NHL’s most controversial storylines.
