On the 48th episode of The CCHA Reporter's Corner, co-hosts Jared Rubado and Trent Singer turned to the listeners for a special mailbag edition.

No questions were turned away in this week's episode, which lasted a little longer than an hour and a half.

Producer Cordell Wright stepped in as a host of sorts and asked a number of questions submitted to the show by listeners from around the league.

In this episode, Rubado and Singer discuss the prospect of CCHA expansion before answering a couple inquiries about how the new rule allowing CHL recruits to play in the NCAA has changed their consumption of Canadian major junior hockey.

Also, Rubado and Singer give their picks for which player(s) on each of the nine teams in the CCHA are most likely to make it to the NHL.

What schools in the NSIC could be poised to be the next to make the jump to Division I hockey? Which team is going to emerge between Ferris State and Northern Michigan in the race for eighth spot in the Mason Cup Playoffs?

The CCHA Reporter's Corner co-hosts give their takes on all of that and more before closing out with some fun quick-hitting questions, including a glimpse into Rubado's facial hair routine and the CCHA burner accounts that have left the most lasting impressions.

Thanks to all those who submitted questions for this week's episode. The hope is to try this again at some point in the future.
