On the second half of this week's Keeping Karlsson Fantasy Hockey Podcast mega-show, Elan and Brian gather and analyze the latest fantasy hockey news, notes and data from the past season to work on projecting the 2023-24 NHL and fantasy hockey season, including:

• Are we pausing the pod for ERod?
• Is patience a virtue with Tage Thompson, Erik Karlsson and Nikolaj Ehlers?
• Can old guys like JvR and Palmieri find real relevance at this age and stage?
• Which Kraken are worth holding through this early season scoring drought?
• Are the Coyotes for real, and who could take a star turn?
