We have our third coaching change of the year as the St. Louis Blues have moved on from the Head Coach that led them to their first ever Stanley Cup in 2019. Craig Berube is out behind the bench, even though the team is just a few points out of a playoff spot.Jason and Frank started off the podcast by breaking down why the move was made and debated whether or not this Blues team is good enough to get into the playoffs. That also led into a bigger conversation about whether or not this team is on the path to becoming a Cup contender or if a bigger rebuild is needed.From there, they got into the big changes coming to the NHL Skills Competition. There will be a cool $1 million up for grabs and only 12 players will compete in the competition. Will this make the skills competition actually watchable? The guys debated it.After a long conversation about local cuisine, they brought in Tyler Yaremchuk for a new edition of Fill in the Blank, delivered by DoorDash. He asked the guys about the Pittsburgh Penguins, whether or not we’ll see another coaching change this season and a fun question about Connor Bedard.They wrapped up the show by talking about Mikko Rantanen's post-game comments and the New York Islanders hot streak.1:00 - Blues fire Berube12:55 - Changes to the skills comp25:30 - Fill in the Blank32:33 - Rantanen Speaks Up35:40 - Islanders heaterWant to hear more from Frank, Jason and the entire DFO team?
