Recapping a Wild All-Star Week

The DFO Rundown

The NHL All-Star weekend is usually a quiet time where the league is focused more on taking time off or showing their sponsors a good time than they are on making news happen. Well, that was not the case this weekend.

We had two big trades, a coach firing, and some juicy press conferences from both Commissioner Gary Bettman and Marty Walsh from the NHLPA.

Walsh blasted the Arizona Coyotes on a handful of issues and that’s led to even more speculation about the future of the Coyotes in the desert. Frank outlined two potential scenarios that he could see play out over the next six months.

Bettman unveiled the next plans for the NHL when it comes to international hockey. Frank and Jason gave their thoughts on the Four Nations Face-Off and the plans for the world’s best players to return to the Olympics in 2026.

They also hit on the Todd McLellan firing in Los Angeles before getting to Tyler with a new edition of Buy or Sell where he got the guys takes on the Lindholm trade and the Jets adding Sean Monahan.

They wrapped up the show with some talk about Frank’s viral moment from the weekend. He clarified his take on Sidney Crosby and gave a longer explanation of things.
