Welcome to the DFO Rundown with Jason Gregor and Jeff Marek!
Logan Thompson continues to pull ahead for Canada’s Olympic starting job after a 39-save shutout against Jet Greaves. Trouba’s hit on Ryan Leonard sparks debate, with both hosts calling it clean, and they break down Tom Wilson’s response.
They discuss whether the NHL should schedule more two-game city stops after Chicago’s back-to-back in L.A. Phillip Danault’s offensive dip raises questions about his trade-deadline value, while Tyler Seguin’s season-ending injury could push Dallas into a big deadline move.
The Sabres sit at the bottom of the East again—what’s next?
Pat joins for Buy or Sell: Avs or Stars for the Cup Final, Penguins or Flyers for the playoffs, and Crosby chasing the age-38 scoring record.
The show also touches on changes to the Foster Hewitt Award, Ottawa’s slide, Calgary heating up before a possible fire sale, and whether Shane Wright can find his footing as Seattle cools off.

Welcome to the DFO Rundown with Jason Gregor and Mike Rupp!
Rupp and Gregor start the show off by talking about the competitive nature of the West and the parity of teams in the East.
The Florida Panthers are now 7 points out of the playoffs with a demoralizing loss to the Nashville Predators last night. Lots of key injuries but will the return of Matthew Tkachuk be enough if they end up 10+ points out of a playoff spot come January. Sergei Bobrovsky has struggled for the Panthers this season and in a contract year, what's the future like for the Russian goaltender?
Next, it's the Stanley Cup finalists in the West, Edmonton. A rough start to the year but a massive win over Seattle sees them pushing towards relevance in the Pacific Division race. The Kraken lack top talent, and the guys dissect Seattle's moves from the expansion draft to present day. Is there a team that needs a top-3 pick more than the Kraken?
Calgary and Nashville have started to drag themselves out of the basement and Vancouver now see themselves at the bottom of the NHL standings. Could the Canucks be the first piece to fall on the trade market and blow it all up?
Pat joins the show for Fill in the Blank with questions like:
Jesper Wallstedt needs to ____ to win the Calder
The Rocket Richard winner will have ____ goals
The ____ will be a surprise team to miss the playoffs in the Eastern Conference
Are Carolina and New Jersey in trouble with their current standing in the Metro?
Rupp and Gregor look into some of the top pests in the NHL. From Brad Marchand to Mason Marchment, who are some of the guys who excel in getting under the skin of their opponents?
Lastly, Rupp recounts some stories from his days in the NHL, some of the pests of his era, and some advice for young players looking to play the role of a pest.

Welcome to the DFO Rundown with Jason Gregor and Mike Rupp!
We start the show with a quick recap of Rupper’s Thanksgiving yesterday.
The Vancouver Canucks have opened up their veterans to the trade market. Which players do Gregor and Rupp think are most likely to be moved out of Vancouver? And what will happen with the most polarizing trade piece of all, Quinn Hughes?
The Edmonton Oilers have seen major regression on the defensive end, going from an above-average defensive team to one of the worst in the league at insulating their goalies. What moves can be made to solidify the Oilers’ crease? The guys dive into options like Tristan Jarry and Jordan Binnington.
Gregor asks Rupp which young goaltender in the NHL has the best shot at earning a Vezina nomination—or even a win. Askarov, Dostal, Knight, and Wallstedt are all showing out to start the season. Which of these four would you bet on to get the first Vezina nod?
The Winnipeg Jets are 0-3-0 since losing their Vezina-winning goalie, Connor Hellebuyck. How concerned should Jets fans be?
Pat joins the show for another edition of Fill in the Blanks:
The guys highlight the parity in the league right now and the tight playoff race as we pass the U.S. Thanksgiving mark. Rupp talks about Scott Wedgewood and how team defensive metrics can help goalies achieve better numbers than expected.
Lastly, will the Colorado Avalanche chase down the Bruins’ points record? And if they cruise to the Central Division title, would it affect them come playoff time?

Welcome to the DFO Rundown with Jason Gregor and Mike Rupp!
Gregor and Rupp start by looking at the teams struggling in the West and what the Vancouver Canucks should do right now. Will Quinn Hughes be on the move out of Vancouver if struggles continue?
The guys look at superstars who were traded mid-season and the rarity of a high-calibre player being moved at the deadline.
Two teams with slightly surprising starts in the East are starting to fall back down to Earth. Who are you more concerned about — Pittsburgh or Montréal?
JT Miller has come under fire for a lack of effort on a goal against Tuesday versus Vegas. Rupp breaks down the Rangers captain and what might be hampering the forward.
Is the recent stretch by Pittsburgh more reflective of what was expected from this Penguins team? Was their hot start unsustainable? Is Benjamin Kindel the future for the Pittsburgh Penguins?
Alex Ovechkin scored three more goals last night and tied Bobby Hull for the fifth-most hat tricks in NHL history. Ovi is 17 hat tricks behind the Great One, but another record is in sight as he sits eight games away from tying Gretzky for the most multi-goal games. How many goals will the Great Eight finish with in his career?
Sidney Crosby and Alex Ovechkin both sit in the top ten in NHL points. Given the success of Nathan MacKinnon and Connor McDavid, plus the hot starts from even younger players like Macklin Celebrini and Connor Bedard, which active player will be next to break major records?
Connor Hellebuyck is undergoing a minor arthroscopic knee procedure that will sideline him for 4–6 weeks. How concerned should the Jets and Team USA be?
Next, Rupp gives his projected Team USA roster. Alex DeBrincat and Jason Robertson join the roster, while Brock Nelson and Clayton Keller drop out from his last projection. Do young players like Spencer Knight and Cutter Gauthier deserve spots on the American roster? Is Kiefer Sherwood a wildcard to make Team USA given his skill set?
Gregor gives his Team Canada roster projections. Young guns Connor Bedard and Macklin Celebrini join his projected squad as Mark Stone and Seth Jarvis drop out. Jakob Chychrun is the only change on the back end for Gregor, as he replaces Travis Sanheim on the projected roster. Is Scott Wedgewood’s start worthy of a spot as one of the three Canadian goaltenders?
Lastly, the guys discuss the Mikko Rantanen hit on Alexander Romanov in the Stars–Isles game and the reaction from New York’s coach, Patrick Roy.

Are the Nasvhille Predators open for business, even when it comes to Forsberg or Josi? David and Irf answer those questions and more on today's episode.

Welcome to the DFO Rundown with Jason Gregor and Jeff Marek!\
Jack Hughes is out for about two months with a strange off-ice injury. How will this affect New Jersey’s hot start, and will Hughes be ready for the Olympics?
Given the nature of Hughes’ injury, the guys discuss some of the weirdest athlete injuries from across the sporting world.
Tampa Bay beat their in-state rivals, the Florida Panthers, despite a plethora of injuries to some of their top players. How will the injury bug affect the NHL trade market over the next couple of months?
Montréal and Boston highlighted a great weekend slate, with the Original Six matchup providing some sensational old-school hockey featuring two fights in the first five minutes. The NHL also took the ice in Sweden for the Global Series.
Drew Doughty suffered an injury over the weekend, and his hopes of representing Canada at the Olympics are slowly fading. After an underwhelming Four Nations tournament, was that the last time Doughty will don the Maple Leaf?
Staying in LA, Adrian Kempe cashed in with an eight-year, $85-million contract extension. Kempe was a top free agent heading into the 2026 off-season — so who’s left in a dwindling 2026 UFA class?
Zach Hyman returned for the Edmonton Oilers and helped propel them to a comeback win against the Carolina Hurricanes. Leon Draisaitl scored the overtime winner and finished the game with three points.
A scary scenario unfolded in the OHL, as Luke Dragusica slashed the face of Brady Blaseg during the Mississauga–Oshawa game. What will the punishment be for Dragusica?
The New York Islanders have had great starts from several young players. Matthew Schaefer has surpassed expectations on Long Island, and trade acquisition Emil Heineman is quietly putting together an impressive offensive season.
Brent Burns is continuing his incredible career in Colorado, where he’s averaging over 20 minutes a night for the Avs. During Colorado’s matchup with the Islanders on Sunday night, the broadcast noted that Burns had played 145 games before Isles defender Matthew Schaefer was born.
The New York Rangers and Detroit Red Wings had an epic jersey matchup over the weekend, both sporting dark uniforms in a rarely seen double-dark pairing. Would you like to see more double-dark jersey matchups?
Gregor and Marek reminisce about old NHL arenas, from the low glass to the shadows on the ice.
Pat joins the show for another edition of “Buy or Sell”:
Who’s the favourite right now to win the Rocket Richard Trophy, and does David Pastrňák have what it takes to sneak into the conversation?

Gregor and Rupp start off the show with a look ahead to a weekend packed with sports.
The Colorado Avalanche may not be running away with the Central quite so easily. The Dallas Stars have been on a tear lately and just demolished the Atlantic-leading Canadiens 7–0. The guys talk about Jason Robertson heating up, Wyatt Johnston’s power-play prowess, and the anticipation surrounding a Jamie Benn return.
Next, we head to the West Coast to discuss the resurgence of the LA Kings. A team many predicted to contend atop the Pacific struggled out of the gates but has now found its footing, surging up the standings to sit second in the division. The guys
dive into their defensive acumen and a promising offensive spark.
Later, we look at the struggling Maple Leafs, who dropped another game last night—this one in overtime to the Kings—dropping Toronto to a .500 points percentage. People can point to the injury bug, but this team has been extremely poor defensively this season, with a league-worst goals-against per game. Gregor and Rupp break down a quote from William Nylander about the Leafs’ early-season struggles.
After a torrid start to the season, it looks like the Montréal Canadiens are coming back down to earth. The goaltending tandem of Sam Montembeault and Jakob Dobês has faltered recently, with both goalies struggling to keep the puck out of the net.
Nashville is the team everyone is watching when it comes to a potential big early-season move. Will it be a coaching change, a veteran being shipped out, or something shocking—like moving on from Juuse Saros? Will the Predators regret going the veteran route instead of committing to a rebuild like Chicago, Anaheim, and San Jose?
Home ice used to be a fortress for the Vegas Golden Knights, but over their latest home stretch they’ve collected only four points out of a possible 12. Can they turn it around as they play five of their next six on the road?
Later, Pat joins the show for “Fill in the Blanks” with questions such as:
Who can challenge Joel Quenneville for the Jack Adams Award?
Will anyone challenge Connor Hellebuyck’s Vezina reign?
Which franchise deserves Gavin McKenna?
After that, the guys discuss Gavin McKenna’s start at Penn State before wrapping up the show with a little Grey Cup talk ahead of the big game in the CFL this weekend.

Irfaan and David are back with Episode 6 of the DFO Rundown Insider Edition. Vancouver and Toronto have both gotten off to tough starts and fans are starting to get worried. With injuries to Demko and Matthews, is it time to panic in two of Canada's largest markets? The guys also talk about next steps for the Wings and if the New Jersey Devils might have to move out a key piece to make room for an impact forward.

Welcome to the DFO Rundown with Jason Gregor and Jeff Marek!
Gregor and Marek kick off the show with Marek asking whether Vancouver is becoming the new Cole Harbour. Gregor follows up by asking which young gun — Connor Bedard, Macklin Celebrini, or Leo Carlsson — will finish the season higher in the points race?
The guys then dive into the growing parity across the league and the surprising rise of the Anaheim Ducks, Chicago Blackhawks, and San Jose Sharks, each climbing from the basement of the standings into playoff contention. They contrast that with the Nashville Predators, who have doubled down on veterans rather than embracing a youth movement like the other emerging teams.
With the Hockey Hall of Fame Game going tonight, they break down this year’s inductees and discuss how the NHL could improve and modernize the induction event.
Saturday’s dismantling of the Edmonton Oilers at home by the Colorado Avalanche raises the question: How concerned should fans in Alberta be?
The conversation then shifts to a former Oiler. Corey Perry is thriving in Los Angeles, sparking a debate about the 2003 draft and the two active legends it produced: Brent Burns and Corey Perry. Who has had the better career?
Next, the guys examine the goaltending tandem in Montréal, a major storyline for the Atlantic Division–leading Canadiens. With Samuel Montembeault's play has he positioned himself as a legitimate candidate for Canada’s Olympic roster or who should Team Canada look at?
Later, Vick joins the show for “Buy or Sell” with questions such as:
Will there be multiple U-21 players on Team Canada?
Are the Montréal Canadiens the best team north of the border?
Is John Tavares a Hall of Famer?
The show wraps up with a look at the Ducks, their talented young core, and the savvy veteran they added to support the group.

Welcome to the DFO Rundown with Jeff Gregor and Mike Rupp!
Gregor and Rupp start off the show discussing Rupp’s Chicago Bulls fandom and whether he might have had a basketball career if he hadn’t pursued hockey. What sport would you play or follow if not for hockey?
Then we dive into Alexander Ovechkin’s remarkable milestone of reaching 900 career goals. We discuss other elite players, past and present, who have hit major milestones or are on pace to do so. Will Connor McDavid or Sidney Crosby reach 2,000 points?
Gregor highlights the incredible consistency and longevity of the Great One, Wayne Gretzky. Gretzky’s goal record was once thought to be unbreakable; could we ever see a player approach his single-season points record of 215?
The Anaheim Ducks have come out of the gates flying. Can the Ducks sustain this hot start and make a Stanley Cup run?
Macklin Celebrini is tied with the likes of Jack Eichel and Connor McDavid atop the NHL points leaderboard. His 200-foot game has Canadian fans asking: will we see Celebrini don the red and white, and black, at the 2026 Olympics?
Gregor and Rupp break down the controversial hit by Tyler Pitlick on Jalen Chatfield. Is the Minnesota Wild forward facing a multi-game suspension?
Later, we play “Fill in the Blanks.”
Morgan Geekie and Cutter Gauthier are surprise entries among the elite goal scorers after the first month of the season.
Which basement-dwelling team from last season has a legitimate shot this year?
Where will the PWHL expand next, following the release of Vancouver and Seattle’s team names yesterday?
Lastly, we discuss the sneaky strong start from the Boston Bruins. The start is surprising, and while the guys don’t think the Bruins will make the playoffs, they love what they’re seeing from Charlie McAvoy and Hampus Lindholm. Can the Bruins squeak into a playoff spot come April?
Gregor’s "ferocious, killer" dog Maple makes a guest appearance as the guys wrap up the show.

Irfaan and David are back with Episode 5 of the DFO Rundown Insider Edition. Is Edmonton looking to move some pieces out? As Zach Hyman nears his return from injury, the Oilers are in a tough cap situation. Could they join a growing list of Western Conference teams looking to make a trade early in this season? Speaking of trades, the Insiders expect St. Louis and Nashville to receive plenty of interest in their veteran forward as the Central Division begins to shake up without them.

Welcome to the DFO Rundown with Jason Gregor and Jeff Marek!
We start the show with a quick look at the World Series, where the Dodgers defeated the Blue Jays in extra innings on Saturday. Would you rather get swept or lose in OT?
Then we dive into the NHL, discussing luxury teams and dynasties. Is the definition of a dynasty changing in today’s league, where teams don’t dominate like they used to?
Next, we examine the Eastern Conference, where every team is currently over .500 in points percentage. Is the league tighter than before, and is that good for the NHL?
Matthew Schaefer continues to impress, scoring a hat trick on Sunday and totaling 5 goals in 12 games. Could he challenge the record for most goals by a defenseman in their first NHL season? (Brian Leetch had 23 in 1989.)
We also review Evgeni Malkin’s slash on Morgan Stanley and discuss whether it warrants a suspension.
Later, we play some “Buy or Sell”, covering Schaefer’s hot start, the World Series playing on the scoreboard in Edmonton, and whether the Flames are overplaying Dustin Wolf.
To wrap up, we talk about the struggling Nashville Predators and the possibility of Barry Trotz returning as head coach. Could it happen?

Welcome to a Halloween edition of the DFO Rundown as we start with some facial hair, costume and halloween talk!
We then jump into the hockey talk starting with the Seth Jarvis injury as he blocked a shot last night and Rob Brind’amour said “ it doesn’t look good”
Matthew Barzal was a healthy scratch last night after being late for a skate, was this the right call by management? Is that the right culture you want to build?
We then move onto the Martin Necas contract, $11.5M AAV for the next 8 seasons. Would the Avalanche be better off with Mikko Rantanen? Was this number higher or lower than expected?
The New York Rangers continue to be a conversation this season so we went on a little tangent on their top 2 lines. Where is their production and how can they find their confidence if they keep missing opportunities.
Trevor Zegras has seemingly found himself in Philadelphia. The whole team seems to be rolling right now on top of Dan Vladar playing exceptional in the crease. Is this a new look team in Philly with Rick Tocchet?
We then do some Fill in the Blanks for bet365 before finishing off the pod talking about the Pittsburgh Penguins at the top of the standings and our favourite Halloween costumes.

They look around the NHL, reacting to the week's news and digging into the contracts, trades, and moves that are still on the horizon.
Irfaan and David are back with Episode 4 of the DFO Rundown Insider Edition. Calgary's struggles continue, and Blake Coleman and Nazem Kadri have become hot names on the trade board. The Devils and Leafs are both looking to add up front, could they be fits? Adrian Kempe and the LA Kings are still far apart on a contract extension, and Utah has to figure out a plan for Nick Schmlatz after dishing out a 'Mammoth' of a contract to Logan Cooley.

Welcome to the DFO Rundown with Jason Gregor and Jeff Marek!
We kick things off with the red-hot Utah Mammoth and their 7-game win streak. With a young core firing on all cylinders and Schmaltz excelling on his new contract, how high can this team go?
Next, we dive into the St. Louis Blues’ struggles, from scoring woes to goalie confidence issues. Can Joel Hofer bounce back, and how much do they miss Zach Bolduc?
The energy picks up with the New Jersey Devils’ 8-game winning streak, where Jake Allen and Jacob Markstrom are shining.
We discuss some classic hockey jersey debates—Avalanche in Nordiques jerseys, Hurricanes in Whalers jerseys—and reflect on retired numbers.
Then we celebrate major player milestones: Nikita Kucherov hits 1,000 points, and John Tavares nears 500 goals. Could Tavares be on a Hall of Fame trajectory?
Producer Pat joins for a Buy or Sell segment: Can the Minnesota Wild hold their playoff spot? Will Jack Hughes hit 100 points for the first time? Are the Penguins sellers at the trade deadline?
We close with the Calgary Flames’ scoring struggles and whether their season might already be in jeopardy.

Welcome to the DFO Rundown with Jason Gregor and Mike Rupp.
Today we start the show talking about a few of the big goal scorers from last night as we had multiple hat tricks! Logan Cooley, Macklin Celebrini, Taylor Raddysh!
We then move on to the Colorado Avalanche and their hot start to the season, has Wedgwood earned the crease in Colorado and how much will Necas want with his next contract. How much of his success is due to Nathan MacKinnon?
We also take a deep dive into Dylan Larkin and the Red Wings, Utah Mammoth and Logan Cooley, and the officiating in last nights match between the Edmonton Oilers and Montreal Canadiens. Cole Caufiled had himself a game with two great goals but had some comments for the refs after the game on a Josh Anderson Unsportsmanlike penalty.
We then take a look at some early Olympic Roster predictions as Jason Gregor puts together Team Canada and Mike Rupp puts forward his best Team USA.
