The DFO Rundown Ep. 249 – Live from Edmonton for the Heritage Classic

Frank made the trek up to Edmonton for the Heritage Classic on Sunday and that means that we got to record today’s episode of the podcast in person. To start things off, he and Jason Gregor talked about the two teams in Alberta. Both the Oilers and Flames are hurting right now and in desperate need of a victory.

They also talked about how they plan on staying warm during the game on Sunday.

From there, they talked about the NHL’s final perfect team: the Vegas Golden Knights. Frank talked about the most impressive part of Vegas’ start. They also gave some love to a team in the Eastern Conference that might not be getting enough attention right now.

Frank also broke down the Shane Pinto situation. Why did the league go as hard as they did? Why didn’t the NHLPA appeal the decision? How will this affect the Senators when the suspension is done? 

In Fill in the Blank, they talked about outdoor game memories and the chances that McDavid won’t win the scoring title this season.
