The calendar has moved into 2024, which means the Calder's Calling podcast is back! Deana Weinheimer and Corey Swartz are back with the latest news and highlights across the American Hockey League.

First, the quick hits! The AHL mourns the loss of a 14-year pro. All of the coaching slots for the All-Star Classic have been filled. Who made it this season? Artem Anisimov returns to the AHL and Coachella Valley tallies the first goal of 2024. What else stood out? Tune in to find out!

Then, we look over our stars for the week. From a red-hot (or chocolatey smooth) netminder to a forward setting franchise records for the Cleveland Monsters, Deana and Corey award their picks.

Corey leads us into a deep dive into what is going right in Hershey. Who is standing out? How does this team compare to past champions?

Deana closes out the show by turning her sights on the Belleville Senators. Are they a force to be reckoned with in the North Division? Is there recent success legit?
