Devils GM Tom Fitzgerald on Hughes, Bratt, Culture Change, & Goaltending

It’s Halloween night and we dropped a spooky edition of The DFO Rundown to celebrate the occasion. The Toronto Maple Leafs have certainly spooked their fan base with their play early in the season and now, Sheldon Keefe might be losing some sleep as the team wraps up their western road trip. For Bruins fans, this start to the season has definitely been a huge treat. The team is rolling and David Pastrnak is shooting the lights out, which led Jason and Frank to talk about what his next contract could look like.

Tyler Yaremchuk then stopped by for a special Halloween edition of Buy or Sell delivered by our friends at DoorDash. He asked the guys about the Jets, Golden Knights, and also Erik Karlsson’s resurgence and if that could lead to the Sharks defenseman having trade value around the league.

They then got to their big guest of the week: New Jersey Devils GM Tom Fitzgerald. The team's had a quick turnaround after a few tough games to start the season and Fitzgerald talked about the culture change that the team has gone through over the last few years. He also hit on the current goaltending tandem and the emergence of the team's young core. Jack Hughes and Jesper Bratt are leading the way and are giving the fan base reason to believe that the Devils can compete for years to come.
