The Pittsburgh Penguins are GOING BACK to the Stanley Cup Playoffs!!

For the first time in four years, the Penguins are playoff-bound!! Patrick and Hunter begin the show by…well, basically screaming because the Penguins have officially clinched their spot in the 2026 Stanley Cup Playoffs! (1:40) They recap the victory over the Devils and how, despite some hiccups, they gutted out another massive win. Then, they talk about how the Penguins “Flipped The Script” on everyone’s expectations, who played roles, and how the Penguins’ brain trust should get some hardware this summer. (14:00) Finally, could this weekend be the final chapter in Crosby vs. Ovechkin? They preview what could be the final two meetings between the Penguins and the Capitals. (26:00)
