In this episode, Sebastian and Hadi delve into the Calder Race and debate the likelihood of either Connor Bedard or Logan Cooley coming out on top, take a look at some questions from you the listeners, and analyze 3 young NHLer bounceback candidates. First, they kick off a new recurring segment - head-to-head prospect analyses - by looking at the 2023-24 Calder Race, which will likely be headlined by recent 1st Overall pick Connor Bedard and last year's 3rd Overall selection Logan Cooley. Next, they open up the vaults of listener questions and give their takes on players such as Luke Hughes, Alexander Holtz, and Logan Mailloux. Last, they break down the games of 3 young NHLers who had down years in 2022-23 relative to expectations and analyze how they could bounce back in 2023-24: Juraj Slafkovsky, Anton Lundell, and Cole Sillinger.

Tune back in tomorrow for 2 more Head-to-Heads: David Jiricek vs. Simon Nemec; & Luke Hughes vs. Olen Zellweger!
