Summary

The Jeff Marek Show returns and kicks off 2024 with Hailey Salvian, writer for The Athletic, to break down the inaugural PWHL game between New York and Toronto, before diving into Canada's defeat at the hands of Czechia in the quarter finals of the World Juniors. Then, former NHL goaltender Carter Hutton joins the show to discuss the importance of depth in goal this season, the inner workings of a three-goaltender system, and more (32:23). Later, The Athletic's Ian Mendes joins Jeff to break down the Ottawa Senators' front offices moves (50:10), before we hear a pair of interviews from this week's 32 Thoughts: The Podcast (01:18:58). The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.
