Should the Penguins call Vegas for an upgrade on defense?

The Penguins have quite a few needs this offseason, chief among them is defense, and there's a Western Conference team that could help. Patrick and Hunter open the show by talking about defensemen, who the Penguins could or should have an interest in this off-season to upgrade their blue line. First, they talk about Nicholas Hague, who is reportedly on the trade block in Vegas and would be a good fit for both the present and the future. Then they discuss a couple of names, including Ryan Lindgren and K'Andre Miller, and whether or not they're worth a phone call. Next, Mike Vellucci moved on to Chicago, but his exit left some questions about the penalty kill. Was he responsible for the struggles of the past couple of years, or was it the personnel? Finally, they end the show discussing the future of two young goaltenders in the system, Sergei Murashov and Joel Blomqvist. Both have bright futures, but patience will be necessary in their development.
