The Penguins get BACK in the win column against the Kings!

Today is a very odd episode of the Locked On Penguins podcast as Hunter is in studio recording while Pat had to pre-record his takes since he's on the road. They start the show with Drew O'Connor's season in review as they continue their season review series. They discuss how DOC finally put it together for this season after it looked a bit dicey for him to start his career. Hunter dives into the data and how DOC played with Crosby compared to without him and where he fits into next year's lineup. Pat then gives his review for DOC and even gives him a grade before the two shout out Brayden Yager and Moose Jaw for advancing to their first-ever Memorial Cup. They go into how great Yager was during the playoffs (like Wednesday a little bit) and ponder whether he can up his game even more in the Memorial Cup. Finally, they discuss Sidney Crosby's OT winner against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers eight years later.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Policygenius Check life insurance off your to do list in no time with Policygenius.

The Pittsburgh Penguins provided some clarity on some injuries that a few players went through during the 2023-24 season and that's where Hunter and Pat start Wednesday's show. They dive into how we now know what was limiting Kris Letang late in the season and why he was playing so bad. They also look at the future of Matt Nieto after he had to undergo another knee surgery a couple of weeks ago. Will he be on the team to start the season? They then give their thoughts on John Ludvig's surgery and what the outlook for him is before diving into how Brayden Yager continues to light up the WHL Playoffs. They look at how he's been able to make his mark and continue his stellar development before ending the show with their thoughts on the second round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Policygenius Check life insurance off your to do list in no time with Policygenius.

While the Penguins were marred by inconsistencies on the blue line all season long, Marcus Pettersson brought the steady play they needed. In this episode, Patrick and Hunter look back on Pettersson's season as the team's most consistent defenseman, the value he brings, and why he should be a candidate for an extension. Next, the boys discuss why they're optimistic this team can make their way back to the Stanley Cup Playoffs next season. Finally, we celebrate silly season a little bit early and discuss how the Penguins could possibly pull off a blockbuster trade that would bring a dynamic young talent to Pittsburgh. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Monopoly GO!Get in the game and join your friends.

Reilly Smith looked like he was going to be the perfect fit for Evgeni Malkin this year after being acquired during the offseason, but it ultimately wasn't meant to be. Patrick and Hunter look back at Smith's season, what caused such a regression, and what the Penguins should do with him moving forward. Then, unfortunately, the Wheeling Nailers' season came to an end this weekend in a sweep at the hands of the Toledo Walleye. Despite the loss, there are pieces that could be a part of the organization moving forward, including goaltending Taylor Gauthier. Finally, the boys check in with how Penguins players are faring at the IIHF 2024 World Championships. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Monopoly GO!Get in the game and join your friends.

The Pittsburgh Penguins delivered some news on Friday with the re-signing of Valtteri Puustinen. To start this episode, Hunter and Pat give their thoughts on the signing and what to expect from Puustinen for next season. They also dive into how he played this past season and what line suits him best for next season. After that, they dive into the latest regarding Sheldon Keefe and look at whether he'd make sense to come into the organization. Should the Penguins go after him for an assistant job? What about the WBS job? The two go back and forth about it (and don't agree a little bit) before ending the show with how it's been eight years since Nick Bonino's overtime goal. They go back in time to detail what they were doing at that time before discussing how awesome it's going to be when the 2016 team gets honored in a couple of years for the 10-year anniversary of the Stanley Cup team. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Monopoly GO!Get in the game and join your friends.

When the Penguins traded Jake Guentzel this season, it certainly caused a lot of heartbreak, but what they got back might have been the heart they had been missing all along. In this episode, Patrick and Hunter discuss Michael Bunting's impact on the team and his future. Then, they check in on top prospect Brayden Yager who is lighting up the WHL Playoffs with a chance to head to the Memorial Cup. Finally, the Wheeling Nailers are staring down a 3-0 series deficit and being eliminated from the Kelly Cup Playoffs.  Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Monopoly GO!Get in the game and join your friends.

When the Pittsburgh Penguins signed Lars Eller, Hunter and Patrick didn't have high expectations but he certainly had a very solid season as their third-line center. They do his season in review and look at what he can do next year. Does he still need some help on his line? Can fans expect him to score 15 goals again? After that, the guys talk about some more UFA candidates they would like to see the Penguins take a run at in order to bolster the team's depth, especially up front. Who are some of those forwards? Are any of them "dream signings?" Finally, the two discuss how the Penguins have a slim chance of moving up in the NHL Draft since the lottery is tonight before the Warrior Helmet makes a surprise appearance on Tuesday for the MVP of the first round of the playoffs.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Monopoly GO!Get in the game and join your friends.

It's time for another season review and this time, Hunter and Pat discuss Bryan Rust. They look back at his excellent season and break down what went right for him. They also look at the numbers and how he contributed most of his work at 5-on-5 before pondering if he deserves an "A" on his sweater every night. They then look at if he can continue this heading into next year even though he'll be a bit older. After that, they look at some bounce-back candidates for next season, including Rickard Rakell and maybe even Noel Acciari. Finally, they discuss their second-round playoff picks and look at how Wheeling is doing in the Kelly Cup Playoffs. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Monopoly GO!Get in the game and join your friends.
