(0:00)Then, they take a look at the other bench and run down who will suit for the Habs.

The Penguins were back at it today, and as expected, Sidney Crosby looked top-notch, and Evgeni Malkin had a lot to say. Hunter and Patrick begin the Friday edition of Locked On Penguins, discussing Evgeni Malkin's comments about his future with the team and in the league. Could Geno be traded? While unlikely, his comments do leave the door slightly open. Then, they remember the late Ray Shero, who is being honored with the 2025 Lester Patrick Trophy for his dedication to hockey in the United States. Hunter was once again at training camp. He gives his day two observations, including one defenseman who looked pretty good and more intensity from head coach Dan Muse. Finally, it's Fan Take Friday, they take questions about tanking, how Muse will treat the team during down stretches, and more!

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?

Finally, Sidney Crosby spoke out at season ticket delivery on Monday, giving a pretty heated rebuke to his agent and the trade rumors.

Marc-Andre Fleury is coming back to the Pittsburgh Penguins for one final game! Patrick and Hunter begin the show discussing the biggest news of the week for the Penguins, and that is legendary goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury has signed a professional tryout contract with the team, but it's more of a two-day deal. The Penguins' 2003 first-overall pick and three-time champion will practice with the team during a training camp session and then appear in the September 27 preseason game, finishing his career where it all began. Speaking of training camp, the Penguins officially announced training camp dates, and it begins next week. The Penguins will play seven preseason games, and while normally that would be too many, with a new coaching staff, it could be a blessing in disguise. Finally, it's Fan Take Friday, and the guys respond to takes and questions about Erik Karlsson, Marc-Andre Fleury's return, and the latest Crosby rumors.

Finally, a familiar voice will join the Penguins' in-studio radio team. Pierre McGuire will be a member of the pre- and post-game crew on Penguins Radio.
