Frank Seravalli’s background was a beautiful blue sky with an abundance of palm trees as he’s in Florida for the upcoming Board of Governors meeting. He speculated about some of the potential discussion points that some of the most important people in the sport will be going through including the salary cap, the future of Gary Bettman, and some on-ice ideas.


From there, the guys hit on the surging Washington Capitals, the struggling Florida Panthers, and Darryl Sutters recent comments following a loss in Toronto.


Our guest today on the show was Brent Thompson, the Head Coach of the Bridgeport Islanders. Oh, he’s also the father of the hottest player in the NHL, Tage Thompson. We talked with Brent about where he was when Tage popped home five goals against the Columbus Blue Jackets and got his take on his son’s rapid rise to stardom in the NHL. He’s also getting set to coach against his other son Tyce for the first time ever later this week and he talked about that experience.

The red-hot Bruins, the struggling Canucks, and a chat with Paul Maurice

The first-ever episode of 'The DFO Rundown' with Frank Seravalli & Jason Gregor is live! Today, the guys started the show by talking about how they enjoyed Super Bowl Sunday before getting into some big stories from around the NHL. Both Jason and Frank were very wrong about the Boston Bruins, who have just one regulation loss so far this season. The two talked about why they thought the Bruins would take a step back and what's allowed them to not miss a beat despite losing some key players in the offseason. They also took a quick trip across Canada to touch on some hot topics in Vancouver, Edmonton, and Montreal before welcoming in their first-ever guest, Winnipeg Jets Head Coach Paul Maurice! With Paul, they talked about the Jets' addition of Pierre-Luc Dubois, coaching during the pandemic, and how the Jets organization uses and values analytics. Maurice also touched on his relationship with Jim Rutherford and played a game of 'Rapidfire' with Frank! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
