96: McDavid, Marner, Kaprizov & More with Doug MacLean

100% Hockey

Whenever Doug MacLean joins John and Daren, one thing’s guaranteed: the conversation is going to cover a lot of ground. This time is no different.
The guys start with the news out of Minnesota, where Wild ownership has reportedly lined up a massive contract offer for Kirill Kaprizov. That leads into a bigger discussion about superstar deals and the unique pressure that comes with them. Naturally, Connor McDavid’s future comes up. With his contract winding down, McDavid recently said, “I’ll take my time … I have every intention to win in Edmonton” — a comment that sparks debate about what’s next for him, and how it compares to Mitch Marner’s move out of Toronto.
From there, the conversation opens up to some of the rising teams in the East, the differences between playing in Canada versus the U.S., and where the Olympics fit into the bigger picture of the game. It’s Doug at his best — plenty of insight, a few strong opinions, and more than a couple of laughs along the way.
