The Penguins dropped their second preseason game 7-4 to the Detroit Red Wings, and the play in net was not encouraging. Hunter and Patrick begin the Wednesday edition by talking about goaltender Arturs Silovs’s forgettable night. (1:10) While it is preseason and he didn’t have a full NHL defense in front of him, some of his issues are the same ones he’s been struggling with for a while. So, is it time to worry, or was he just knocking off the rust? Then, despite the loss on Tuesday night, there were plenty of positives to take away from the game. (14:00) The Ruck Twins were solid in their debut, two of the Penguins’ new defensemen had big nights, and much more. Finally, camp is already winding down; they look at the remaining schedule and when they think some cuts will happen. (25:30)
