The DFO Rundown

Happy Holidays! We hope you enjoyed the holiday break and we hope that you're ready for a brand new episode of the podcast! The holiday buzz around the sport was squished a little bit by the NHL's pause, which isn't ending as quickly as we thought it was. Frank and Jason talked about the impacts of the Omnicoron virus on the league and when things could get back to normal. They also brought in Tyler Yaremchuk for a new edition of Fill in the Blank before getting to Chris Peters, who gave us some fantastic insight into the early days of the World Junior Hockey Championships!

It's time to start your week off with a new episode of the pod! There is a lot of talk about whether or not NHL participation at the 2022 Winter Olympics is realistic and that's where Jason and Frank began today's show. They dug into what we learned this weekend and the big decisions that still need to be made. From there, they got into the Jim Rutherford hiring in Vancouver. How will things work in the Canucks organization and was this hiring the right move for the franchise? They both gave their takes. They also hit on the crazy numbers that Alex Ovechkin has been putting up, the Hart Trophy race, some recent hits around the league that have made headlines, and John Tortorella's recent comments.

Did anything happen this weekend? It was a wild few days around the NHL with some big games on the ice and some major news off of it. The Vancouver Canucks finally made the big changes that their fan base was begging for as both GM Jim Benning, Head Coach Travis Green, and others were let go on Sunday. We now also know that Bruce Boudreau is going to be the next Head Coach of the team. Frank and Jason broke everything down today on the pod. Frank gave some potential candidates for the now vacant GM position as well. Oh, and Frank casually broke the Alain Vigneault firing while we were recording.  They also hit on some of the big games that happened over the last 48 hours and brought in Tyler Yaremchuk for 'Buy or Sell'.
