We are over the moon to have him here.
He's talking about just doing anything he can to help where we are at and help us grow.
And I think the common word he kept on using was build.
And that's what we're doing here is trying to build something, an environment that is strong and that is sustainable.
And he's going to be a massive piece of that.
Well, he brings a bit of everything.
Obviously, his progression in the last two years of where playing in Chilliwack and playing against older, mature men and going into the OHL and the progression from day one to where he is now was... Watching that, you know that the ceiling is extremely high.
He still has ways to grow and to evolve as a player, but...
Good player, great human being, leadership qualities.
It's that simple.
It was not, and I've said this to you guys from the get-go, those are two separate decisions as far as hiring a head coach and picking a hockey player at number three.
Today, as an organization, we didn't draft Manny's kid, we drafted Caleb Malhotra.
And that's, I think you can tell how excited I am to have the opportunity to do that.
So I've said all along, I've said that to both player and coach,
coach slash dad that these were two separate decisions and felt with no hesitation of walking up there and making that pick.
Yeah, I was obviously looking to, you know, you kind of have buckets of players and you're obviously trying to get as many players you can in the higher buckets and looked at some different options to...
either get up or get in and around another pick within and around the 24 to be able to get a couple players in that bucket.
But things have to go your way.
Other teams are looking at the board, watching their players drop off.
But where we ended up, the three and 24 and the players we got, we'll walk out of here tonight feeling really good about what we have and excited about tomorrow.
