Summer break is over and rightfully so 'cause we got some topics to discuss. Episode will be dedicated to two gentlemen Rodion Amirov and Rick Jeanerret who sadly passed away during my break and I want to send my condolences to both of their families. NHL 2023-2024 season is rapidly closing down on us which also means that my season previews are just around the corner and in today's episode I will reveal you the plan for the next 4 weeks. On top of that, at the end of this week's episode I'll give you a small teaser of what about to come in the coming weeks so, make sure you stick until the end to find out which topics will be on display once we start to go through each NHL organization. This week we will also go through the most recent signings (prospects, free agents and extensions), the two trades that happened during the break, major retirements and as a cherry on top, I will share my honest thoughts on AM34's newest retirement fund announcement. So a lot has been packaged to this 1h comeback episode - strap up!
