The DFO Rundown

This episode couldn't wait till morning... The NHL offseason just delivered its biggest shocker yet.

Jason Gregor and Jeff Marek break down the blockbuster trade that sends Brady Tkachuk from the Ottawa Senators to the Florida Panthers. Why did Ottawa make the move? What comes next for Steve Staios and the Senators? And does adding Brady alongside Matthew Tkachuk instantly make Florida the team to beat in the Eastern Conference?

The guys discuss the assets Ottawa received, whether more moves are coming, and why this trade may only be the first step in a much larger offseason plan for the Senators.

They also examine Seattle's acquisition of Mackie Samoskevich, the Edmonton Oilers signing Jason Dickinson to a long-term extension, and what Mike Babcock's arrival could mean for Edmonton heading into a crucial season.

Later, Alex Tuch's free-agent future takes center stage. Which teams make the most sense for one of the top names on the market? Could Utah, Los Angeles, or another Western Conference contender land the veteran winger?

Plus, Buy or Sell returns with discussions on NHL rebuilds, Elvis Merzlikins' future in Columbus, Gavin McKenna's rookie point projections, and much more.

The show wraps with a look ahead to the Hockey Hall of Fame announcement, including discussions surrounding Carey Price, Patrice Bergeron, Henrik Zetterberg, Curtis Joseph, Rod Brind'Amour, and other notable candidates.

Then the trade rumors really begin. Could Connor Hellebuyck actually be available? Is Elias Pettersson a bounce-back candidate or a change-of-scenery candidate? What teams should be calling Vancouver? And which under-the-radar names could surprise the hockey world this summer?

The guys also discuss the Vegas Golden Knights promoting Ryan Craig behind the bench, Jim Hiller taking over in Toronto, and Mike Babcock's expected return to the NHL with the Edmonton Oilers.
