All 31 teams were set to go this week and then…COVID-19 struck. Boo. What are the chances of a full 56 games being played by all NHL teams this season? Who’s moved where? Who’s injured? And will this year forever have an asterisk next to it in Stanley Cup history because of a shorter journey to the lifting the cup - a cheat year as some may say?

Clare Freeman is back with a pointless NHL quiz, Matt Day is crying into his Yorkshire tea because of trouble brewing ALREADY in Dallas camp, and Jolon Kemp Walker remains as optimistic as ever about Toronto Maple Leafs upcoming season...well, for now at least.

We talk big news injuries, outdoor games announcements, helmet sponsorship AND we hear the hopes and dreams of fans from Chicago Blackhawks, Boston Bruins, Florida Panthers, New York Rangers, Dallas Stars, Calgary Flames, AND Detroit Re Wings persuasions…

Episode 1 of Season 3 of NHL Fans From Afar is go!
