The Penguins don't own a first round pick, so what now?

The Penguins lost their second preseason game, but that doesn't mean it was all negative. Hunter and Patrick begin the show discussing the play of 2025 first-round pick Ben Kindel (1:30), and how another strong outing could continue his time at training camp with the big club. They also break down the play of newly-acquired goaltender Arturs Silovs (7:17), who had an up-and-down game. Along with Kindel, a couple of other prospects had worthwhile performances on Wednesday night. Finally, the Penguins have only made two cuts so far (22:00), and the reason could be so that the young players can see the kind of culture Marc-Andre Fleury, Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin, and Kris Letang have built in Pittsburgh.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Monarch MoneyTake control of your finances with Monarch Money.

The Penguins held a very intense training camp scrimmage on Wednesday morning, and one defenseman stood out above the rest! Patrick and Hunter begin the show discussing the Penguins' very intense, 50-minute training camp intrasquad scrimmage that saw plenty of action and speed. They also discuss how, aside from netting three goals, Kris Letang showed a lot of jump and was one of the best players on the ice. Does this mean he's ready for a bounce-back season, or is this just a player looking good in camp? (0:00) Then, they take a look at the goaltending situation, but more than just how impressive young, Russian netminder Sergei Murashov has been. They discuss how Jarry has been playing, and if Joel Blomqvist's injury opens the door for other candidates.

Despite the Penguins dropping their first game of the preseason, Patrick and Hunter begin the show discussing two of the Penguins' top prospects, Harrison Brunicke and Tristan Broz, both of whom turned in solid performances to start the preseason. The question now is, how much of it is real, and can they continue to capitalize on the momentum? (0:00) Next, the word being used to describe new head coach Dan Muse is "prepared," and that is showing in how he conducts training camp practices.

Penguins training camp has officially begun, and there were plenty of takeaways from the first day of on-ice practice! Patrick and Hunter begin their training camp journey with the Penguins on this episode, and it begins at the beginning: with a Kyle Dubas press conference where he pushed back on Sidney Crosby's agent Pat Brisson's comments, gave updates on his rebuilding plans, and more! Then, they dive into the on-ice sessions where second-year forward Villie Koivunen had a big day, Dan Muse ran an intense practice, as well as other standouts. Finally, a lot of the Penguins' veterans seem defiant this year after a few seasons of disappointment, but will that defiance and motivation lead to a better year? Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!IndeedNow, you can speed up your hiring process with a $75 Sponsored Job Credit.
