Another Friday episode of The DFO Rundown is here! It’s rumour season around the NHL, so to kick off today’s episode Frank and Jason dug into to some of the big stories around the league starting with some potential buyouts candidates before digging into the Duncan Keith trade talks. They also talked about soon-to-be free agent Tony DeAngelo and had some fun with the Nikita Kucherov press conference.

They also welcomed Michael Russo of The Athletic, who covers the Minnesota Wild, into the Wood Jerseys Studio! They talked about a potential Zach Parise buyout, Kirill Kaprizov’s new deal, and more big items that GM Bill Guerin needs to handle this summer.
They also had a new edition of Buy or Sell with Tyler Yaremchuk where the guys were grilled on Andrei Vasilevsky, potential buyouts, the Colorado Avalanche, Tampa Bay Lightning, and Montreal Canadiens!<div class="injected-ad injected-video" data-nn-ad-tech-injection-count="0" data-nn-ad-tech-max-gap="130" data-nn-ad-tech-current-gap="144"></div>
