The DFO Rundown Ep. 289 – Looking Ahead For The NHL’s Basement Dwellers

Frank and Jason are back with another fresh edition of The DFO Rundown. They kicked off today’s show by talking about the comments that were made about Oilers forward Zach Hyman earlier this week and the reaction to it. Hyman responded about as well as he could have, scoring the OT Winner in the Oilers’ win over the Jets on Tuesday.

From there, they decided to take a break from all the talk about the playoff races and instead decided to go to the bottom of the NHL standings and dug into the futures of some of the leagues’ bottom feeders.

They started with the Anaheim Ducks. They missed the playoffs again, but was this season a step forward? Frank and Jason debated that. They then dug into the tire-fire that was the Columbus Blue Jackets, who are heading into the summer in need of some big move but still need to name a General Manager.

Tyler then swung by for a new edition of Buy or Sell delivered by DoorDash. He asked the guys about which team regrets their deadline decisions the most and he got them to pick their World Series winners on Opening Day.
