Getting a phone call from your agent stating that the SHL season isn't going to be starting on time and could be put off for quite some time is never something anyone wants to hear. Fans? Sad. Players? Sad. League as a whole? Sad. For the Panthers Hiro Fujikawa, he was very sad. Over the off-season, he's kept extremely busy with the training sides of things and stated at the end of his year last year that he was going to come back bigger and better than before. It's been rumoured that he trained with a lot of ex-SHL top dogs and even had a little visit from a lot of the old players from his agency. HOF player, Magnus Jakobsen, stated that he'd like to spend more time with Fujikawa to remind him how great the league can be when you're a really good player.

"Maggy just came to help work out, work out himself and show ways that he trained to help evolve my game. Diversity is always something I've loved during my career and is something I want to be as a player. I don't want to be a one trick pony. I want to be a many trick pony and be able to get things done in so many ways.
