The DFO Rundown Ep. 213 – Every team is still alive & we have a new trade targets board

We are on our fifth podcast of the Stanley Cup Playoffs and every single team is still alive. Now, that could all change tonight and that’s where Jason and Frank started today on the show. The Leafs can put away the Lightning tonight in game five of their series. If they lose tonight, how much pressure shifts onto their shoulders? They debated that. The Winnipeg Jets are also trying to stay alive tonight in their series against the Golden Knights. The Jets are hurting right now with multiple key players out of the lineup, can they still pull off the improbable comeback against the Golden Knights?

From there, they talked about Matt Tkachuk’s heroics last night in game five between the Bruins and Panthers. Frank says that Tkachuk is a top-five player in the NHL, but Gregor disagrees. They also talked about the other series going on right now. The Devils have won back-to-back games and now have a chance to take a 3-2 series lead over a Rangers team that is showing some serious flaws.

Tyler also popped in for Fill in the Blank, where he asked the guys about Frank’s first trade targets board of the offseason. They talked about Erik Karlsson, JT Miller, and more names on Frank’s list. They also looked at the updated series odds on Betano.ca.
