Jeff Marek makes an announcement about his return after getting fired by Sportsnet
Hockey fans have been buzzing this summer, and one of the biggest surprises involved Jeff Marek and his sudden exit from Sportsnet, a powerhouse network for NHL coverage in Canada.
Marek, who co-hosted the popular 32 Thoughts podcast with Elliotte Friedman, left a gap that many fans are still feeling after the network let him go in June after leaking unauthorized 2024 NHL draft pick information in Vegas.
Together, he and Friedman created one of hockey's most insightful and entertaining shows drawing fans across North America. Some might have their personal preferences on who they preferred, but they were a perfect match together.
After months of cryptic hints on social media, Marek finally dropped a video confirming his comeback, though he's keeping the details under wraps. Marek first joined Sportsnet back in 2011, building a loyal following over his years with the network.
The clip didn't reveal anything newsworthy, but referenced the overwhelming support he's had since leaving Sportsnet . Fans, colleagues, and friends have been vocal about missing him, and the video echoed that sentiment, wrapping up with a simple I'm coming back message that has the hockey world eager to see what happens next.
Whether he jumps into a new podcast, takes on a fresh role in TV, or even starts something completely different, Marek will attract support whenever he lands.
