Frank and Jason, join us again for another episode of the DFO Rundown! With the regular season right around the corner, Nathan Mackinnon contract extension talks are heating up. We break down the ideal term and salary for MacKinnon and the Avalanche organization. From there, we asked the question "Huberdeau or Gaudreau" in our One or the Other segment. With both forwards transitioning to new teams following this past off-season, we questioned which elite player would you rather have over the next five seasons. Frank Seravalli previews his upcoming story for Daily Faceoff, which places NHL players in specific categories and, most notably, what players are defined as franchise players. Pre-season playoff predictions are in discussion on the DFO Rundown as Jason Gregor states why the Vancouver Canucks will clinch their spot in the playoffs for the upcoming season and which player will be the focal point in helping them reach their first playoff appearance since 2020. Is Ryan O’Reilly going to be able to cash in for this upcoming free agency? At 31 years old, Frank and Jason explain why age might not be a factor once his contract expires following a seven-year deal signed back in 2016-17.
