Battle of Ontario Episode 18 - World Cup of Hockey, John Paddock

Former Senators head coach John Paddock joins the show and Alec and Callum discuss the exciting World Cup of Hockey exhibition games so far.

With the crazy couple of games between Canada and the United States this past weekend, Alec Brownscombe of Maple Leafs Hot Stove and Callum Fraser discuss the early stages of the World Cup of Hockey.

Later, former Senators head coach John Paddock joins the show to talk a couple of his prospects, including Senators’ 2015 4th round draft pick Filip Ahl. We also ask about a former player of his: born-again Ottawa Senator Chris Kelly.

We hope you enjoy episode 18!
