Well, Michigan hockey, fresh off another trip to the Frozen Four.

A lot of new names and faces, whether it's freshmen or through the transfer portal,

have been added to the program.

Head coach Brandon Nerato is going to join me in just a few moments to talk about all of those things

and his excitement for the season right here on Conquering Heroes.

Welcome to your one-stop podcast for all things, Michigan Athletics.

Updates on every team on campus and interviews with players and coaches are all on the way.

This is Conquering Heroes.

Here's your host, John Chanson.

We're pleased to be joined by the head coach here, Michigan Hockey.

That's Brandon Dorado. Coach, thanks for joining me.

And I know last year, hey, a lot of success.

Frozen for appearance, how long after a season like that do you take to just, hey, let things settle down, look back before you start preparations for the following

year, or for the next year? Yeah, it's a good question. Probably the following Monday.

Honestly, we're, I like to review our team when it's fresh in mind. And then, you know,

there's different seasons, like you're recruiting all year long, you know, changing the style of play.

I like to take a look early at, you know, what got us to the Frozen Four, what we did well, where we could improve.

And then you clip all that video, you take notes.

And then you just come back to it and prep for the preseason.

But we're going for the most part.

A little bit of a break in August, but our guys are working.

Recruiting has always been a part of this.
