This week on The Hockey News On The 'A' Podcast with Jacob Stoller and Patrick Williams:

- Shane Wright was granted an exemption to the NHL-CHL Player Agreement. Wright, the fourth overall pick at the 2022 draft, is now AHL eligible in the event he doesn't make the Kraken's roster out of training camp.

- Jacob reveals a proposed solution to the NHL-CHL Player Agreement that a member of an NHL front office proposed to him.

- The Hockey News Editor-in-Chief Ryan Kennedy joined the show fresh off his trip to Washington D.C. to see the NHLPA/Upper Deck player showcase. Ryan provides insight into some of the young prospects we could see in the AHL this year.

- September Sweethearts, Part 2: Jacob and Patrick isolate four defensemen — Declan Chisholm, Jake Christiansen, Trevor Carrick and Jack Rathbone — who could come out and surprise everyone at training camp. These three players may not necessarily make the team, but they could make an impression on their NHL club and vault themselves up the call-up pecking order in the process.
