The WHL's 2023-24 regular season is now underway, and there is tons to discuss on this episode of The Hockey News On The 'Dub' Podcast with Carol Schram and Adam Kierszenblat:
- In headlines, we look into the league's suspension of new Wenatchee Wild coach Kevin Constantine, just two games in, and how this seems to be part of a broader trend of players being more willing to speak up.
- Three WHL teams have named new head captains, four players have signed their entry-level contracts, and the Vancouver Giants have a high-profile new owner.
- We've got two red-hot forwards and a fast-starting goaltender profiled as our three stars of the week.
- This season's first NHL team of the week is the Anaheim Ducks, with four current WHL prospects in their system and a couple of others at training camp.
- The Hockey News editor-in-chief Ryan Kennedy has seven WHL players listed in his top 32 in his first prospects-to-watch list. Adam offers his thoughts on the top three.
- As Adam and Carol regretfully look to move on from the Connor Bedard Watch, they debate the idea of a weekly top prospect 'head-to-head' segment.
