This is supposed to be an off week for the Keeping Karlsson Fantasy Hockey Podcast, but to tide you over until our next episode on January 8, we're releasing our December 2016 patroncast for your consumption!

These monthly bonus shows are normally reserved as an exclusive perk for patrons of Keeping Karlsson– our brilliant supporters ask us anything, and we answer their questions live. If you'd like to support the show and get in on this perk every month (plus a couple others!), head on over to keepingkarlsson.com/patron for the specifics. One last note: this patroncast was originally recorded on December 28, 2016, so keep that in mind when we make reference to in-game happenings and point tallies to date (and Halak still being on the Islanders' roster..).

Happy new year!
