Having become such a staple of both a face and voice in the media concerning hockey, his leaving left quite a large hole in the community of hockey fans everywhere anxious to know where his career would take him. <div align='center'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/TheAthletic/status/1818972674053333197'> </a></blockquote></div> Rumors have circulated about a possible return to the media scene, but so far nothing has been announced officially. Marek has maintained his social media presence, where from time to time he publishes opinions, though up until now, he has not announced any type of affiliation with a particular media organization or an independent project, however, <a href='https://dailyhive.com/vancouver/jeff-marek-teases-return-2' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>he did tease earlier today he is planning to return</a>. The fans are awaiting this, following every indication of his return. «Don't worry, I'm coming back.» - Jeff Marek <div align='center'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/JeffMarek/status/1853469731170488713'> </a></blockquote></div> It has been a month or so since Marek reached the headlines after his return to X, <a href='https://www.hockeylatest.com/nhl/news/jeff-marek-teases-his-return-with-mysterious-post-after-leaving-sportsnet' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>with a GIF of WWE's The Undertaker rising from a coffin</a> to make his trademark move. That post was pretty cryptic, suggesting the silence might be broken anytime and the time in the spotlight isn't over yet. <div align='center'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/JeffMarek/status/1842316056401993937'> </a></blockquote></div> The charismatic Marek was the co-host, prior to his departure, of the highly popular '32 Thoughts' podcast with Elliotte Friedman, hosted 'The Jeff Marek Show', and was a regular on Sportsnet panels. Marek joined Sportsnet back in 2011, and through his time there has become respected as one of the more knowledgeable and entertaining broadcasters in the industry. His surprise exit this past summer raised questions about what had occurred that led to the decision being made. A report from 'The Athletic' writers Katie Strang and Dan Robson said Jeff Marek's departure came after <a href='https://www.hockeylatest.com/nhl/news/jeff-marek-to-be-fully-investigated-after-being-let-go-by-sportsnet' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>allegations he shared internal information about draft picks</a> ahead of the 2024 NHL Draft. In the absence of Marek, Elliotte Friedman has remained hosting '32 Thoughts', now with Kyle Bukauskas. As Marek teases his return, the hope is that soon enough he finally announces what's next in the world of hockey media for him.
