Steven Stamkos Returns to Tampa Bay

Jason and Frank are back with another fresh episode of The DFO Rundown. The guys kicked off today’s show with some drama in Long Island. The Islanders are seemingly having some issues between Head Coach, Patrick Roy, and GM, Lou Lamoriello.

They then jump right into the Maple Leafs extension of Jake McCabe. (5 Years - $4.51M)

Tonight is a big night for Steven Stamkos, heading back to Tampa for the first time since being traded. Will this trade end up being a smart move? We suspect a warm welcome for Stamkos tonight. 

The guys then dive deeper into the Atlantic division to discuss the rough start to the season for both Boston and Buffalo. 

Should NHL teams have a 3rd professional goalie on the roster that travels with the team and fills in when necessary in emergency situations?

Tyler Yaremchuk is on a much deserved vacation to Seattle to watch his Bills play the Seahawks so Producer Patrick Puff fills in for today’s episode of Buy or Sell brought to you by bet365.

You could argue the Golden Knights currently have one of the best lines in the NHL, what could Jack Eichel's next contract look like?

Did the Buffalo Sabres make the right call moving on from Jack Eichel? Has Alex Tuch turned out to be a solid return in the trade?
