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.
