DFO Rundown Episode 27: The Ultimate Roundtable: Playoff Edition with Ferraro & O’Dog
May 10, 2021, 11:46 EDT
With all 16 playoff spots essentially locked up, we figured today was a good time to do our Ultimate Playoff Roundtable (pres. by Manscaped)! Frank and Jason were joined by Ray Ferraro and Jeff O’Neil to get set for the playoffs.
Before bringing in the big guests, they got into the recent coaching news surrounding John Tortorella and Ron Brind’Amour. Frank talked about how the new deal between Rod and the Canes has likely been done for a while, but Brind’Amour is making sure everyone around him gets paid first.
With O’Dog and Ferraro, they started by looking at the Central Division where the Hurricanes are looking like the favourites but the Lightning and Panthers are right behind them. They also touched on the likely first-round matchups in the Canadian Division. Can the Habs pull of an upset? It might come down to goaltending. Will McDavid continue his dominance in the postseason? That will likely decide the Oilers’ fate.
