On this week's episode of The Hockey News on the 'Q' with Will MacLaren and Jamie Tozer:

- The Halifax Mooseheads haven't lost in regulation since late November, in part thanks to some key acquisitions and outstanding goaltending from the latest QMJHL player of the week, Mathis Rousseau.

- Hockey Canada has indicated they would accept proposals from Halifax and Moncton to host the world juniors in 2025. Is this a sign of things to come for future host cities? How soon is "too soon" to host again?

- There were 33 QMJHLers named to the NHL Mid-Season Players to Watch list, and seven are headed to the CHL Top Prospects game later this month. Who rose in the ranks? Any surprises?

- The New York Islanders currently have no drafted players in the QMJHL. However, there are impact guys at both the NHL and AHL levels, and most of them have a winning pedigree.

- The 2023 NHL draft prospect of the week is Mooseheads defenseman Dylan MacKinnon, who earned a spot in the CHL Top Prospects game earlier this week after an impressive first half.

- Will and Jamie dive into the mailbag to answer your questions.

- Much more.
