DFO Rundown – Ep. 29: Overtimes Galore & A Chat With Dave Bolland

The playoffs are underway and they are not disappointing! Frank Seravalli and Jason Gregor got right into things by talking about the crazy number of overtime games to start things off and the red-hot rivalry between the Florida Panthers and Tampa Bay Lightning.

Off the ice, there is plenty of drama as well. Frank got into what’s going on with Kuznetsov, Samsonov, and the Capitals. Is there a real chance that Kuznetsov will be traded? Frank had the answer. The big-name that will be in the rumour mill of course is Jack Eichel, but, the surgery he wants to have a hot-button issue. Could that make him untradeable? The guys debated it. They wrapped up the opening segment by talking about the Vancouver Canucks offseason and what needs to happen.

To further get into the Stanley Cup Playoffs spirit, the guys welcomed Dave Bolland into the Wood Jerseys studio! The two-time Stanley Cup Champion talked about winning it all with the Hawks, the crazy parties that come with it and gave us his take on this year’s postseason. Of course, we couldn’t let him leave without running him through a quick round of Rapid Fire.
