Dave Softy Mahler

spent the previous 15 seasons with the Pelicans, Bryce and Graham, now the new president of basketball operations for the Bulls.

And so his next move, besides Lottery Day, will be to hire a head coach for the Bulls.

No, not necessarily.

No, you know, he has been, again, it's been a slow process for him.

And if you go back to draft night, right, I mean, he was the next Conor McDavid.

He was the next Sidney Crosby.

And I don't remember exactly how quickly those guys were the guy, but it certainly was much faster than what Conor Bedard is of now.

But no.

He has shown true superstar signs on the ice.

The question is, can they build anything around him to help lift it up?

He is undersized.

He's absolutely undersized.

I know that these guys are built a little bit different, and speed matters as much, but you can see what he can do with the puck that he's going to get there.

I don't know if he'll ever reach the expectations of pick one, round one for Conor Bedard, but he's on the come.

He's going to get somewhere close to that.

Well, I would say better than five straight is 15 of their last 18 because they won 10 in a row.

Then they lost three.

And now they're on a five game winning streak.

So 15 of 18 is pretty good.

They are just.
