DFO Rundown Episode 23: Call Me Whatever You Want, I’m in the NHL (feat. Bob Beers)

Another episode of The DFO Rundown with Frank Seravalli and Jason Gregor is here!

This week’s episode features a great chat with former NHLer and current Bruins analyst Bob Beers, who talked about the Bruins recent play, his own career in the NHL, and having one of the best names in hockey history! Before the chat with Bob, Frank and Jason got into Sidney Crosby once again hitting up a point per game, some potential changes to the length of the season, playoff matchups, and more!

How long can Crosby keep up an elite level? That was the first question we tackled this week on the pod. That led into a conversation about Patrick Marleau’s games played record and how impressive it really is. There is also some talk that the NHL might expand the regular season to 84 games and that led the guys to a debate about if the league should consider changing up the playoff seeding system. They wrapped up the opening segment by looking at ‘Kirill the Thrill’ and the surging Minnesota Wild.
