So I wouldn't read too much into it.

It's funny.

I think we can have some fun with it.

And it's one of those things that we can joke around about.

But I don't I don't think you should take take that with too much seriousness.

The fact that Gavin McKenna has not spoken to Toronto nor the San Jose Sharks.

But I would say this like it is a draft where I don't think we should assume with 100 percent certainty that McKenna is going first overall.

I think it's most likely if I'm putting money down, I'm putting money on McKenna going first overall, but I don't think it's written in stone.

Yeah, I would still be surprised, ultimately, based on everything that we mentioned.

But I don't think it's one of those years either.

We can sit here and say with certainty that this player is for sure going first overall.

So that's the prospect side of things.

And obviously, Caleb Malhotra is going to be the one that...

is the closest one to watch, especially after Manny was hired as a Canucks head coach.

And it's interesting because, you know, I've been asking around about Caleb a lot last little while.

And it's interesting to see what people are saying about him right now.

And I don't know if this is one of those things where you're talking yourself into a certain player or it's,

you've gone through the evaluation process more and the fact that he's a later bloomer and he showed a lot more success later in the season, that there are people that are reframing what they believe he can be in the National Hockey League.

I've seen more people mention now that they think he can be, we're not talking about him going top two or top three because we think he's a second line center.

It's like the reason some teams have him so high is they truly believe he's going to be a first-line center who can score, put up a lot of points, and also be a great two-way player.
