## Resource

Sportsnet's Iain MacIntyre joins Matt Marchese and Mike Futa to break down the Canucks hiring Manny Malhotra to be the club's next head coach. Iain dives into Vancouver's busy off-season so far, the team's direction ahead of the 2026 NHL Draft, and their outlook for next season and beyond. Later, Penguins Assistant Coach Mike Stothers (25:06) joins the boys in-studio to chat about his first year back behind the bench, working with Dan Muse, and what's ahead for the Pens following their first round exit. Mike also sets up tonight's Stanley Cup Final with thoughts on Rod Brind'Amour's impact in Carolina, how John Tortorella has faired since his late-season takeover, and how the Golden Knights match up against the Hurricanes.
