Peter Loubardias and Aaron Vickers connect on the first episode of FCHockey: The Podcast, featuring Calgary Flames director of amateur scouting Tod Button and 2020 NHL Draft eligible Jake Neighbours of the Edmonton Oil Kings.
Neighbours, one of the top prospects for 2020 from the Western Hockey League, discusses what it's like as a prospect without having a set date for the draft, how he's managing Zoom interviews with NHL teams and what he's doing to stay in shape despite social distancing efforts and no combine to prepare for.
