Regressing to the mean since 2015, it's the Hockey Piedocast with your host, Dmitri Filippovich.

Welcome to the Hockey Peeocast. My name is Dmitra Filippovitch and joining me for this first edition of 2024 for the Hockey P.D.O.cast, my name is Amitra Filippoovich. And joining me for this first edition of
