Leave an NHL question for James Mirtle's next mailbag

New York Times

As we hit the midway point of July, we're definitely into the dog days of the hockey summer. Unsigned free agents are getting nervous, but other players, executives and, yes, even our writers and editors here at The Athletic are getting some time away at the lake or ocean or some other unfrozen body of water.
With this gap in the schedule, I wanted to open up our mailbag for the next couple of weeks for your suggestions for upcoming column topics. Have a burning question about how something works in the league? Want feedback on a take on your favorite team or player? Or just want to sound off on something else happening in the hockey world?
Have at it in the comments below.
I'll do my best to answer some of the top questions over the second half of the summer and into September, when we'll be getting ready for rookie camps and training camps in no time.
