We're going to talk about the Western Commerce Final, which wrapped up last night. But first, we've got our first draft prospect joining us on the show for this year. We're going to go out to the Xfinity Mobile guest line and welcome in

Carson, Carl's, Prince George Cougars,

defenseman, soon to be headed to North

Dakota to continue his hockey playing.

One of the top defensive prospects in a draft.

Carson, thanks for being with us, man. We appreciate it.

Yeah, thanks for having me, guys.

Fireway. Yeah, thanks for having me, guys. Fireway.

Well, the Hawks need a defenseman, especially on the left side.

And I'm going to give you the opportunity.

You're in an elevator with general manager Kyle Davidson at the draft.

Pitch yourself.

Tell Kyle Davidson why he should draft you. Why would you be a good

fit for the Blackhawks? And why are you, what are your skills? What makes you great?

Well, I'm a two-way defenseman that likes to get in the rush and play offense, but I don't

give up my defense at all. I'm really sound back there. and I play a really well-rounded game and everything like that.

And, I mean, I playoff hockey is kind of my type of hockey.

So, I mean, if I'm a part of the team,

I think that I can help in any way like that.
