Locked On Penguins - Daily Podcast On The Pittsburgh Penguins

Trades are finally starting! There were three deals on Wednesday and Hunter breaks them down to start the show and how they can impact the Penguins moving forward. He again shot down the Ben Chiarot rumors as nothing short of nonsense since no one meaningful was reporting them. He also confirmed how much he got on the trade market and wonders what that could bean for Pettersson, Marino, or even Dumoulin this summer. He also breaks down the Jarnkrok trade and why the Penguins should aim higher than him. After that, he previews Thursday's matchup against the Blues and brings up some keys to how the Penguins can win. Should there also be any lineup adjustments? Hunter gets into that as well before touching on Sid and Geno getting more ice time together, and how Jeff Carter's leadership may hopefully get Kapanen on the right track.

The Pittsburgh Penguins played OUTSTANDING on Tuesday, but in truth, they got goalie'd. Hunter starts the show out by looking at the underlying numbers from tonight and how certain lines did. He also goes over the full team stats and looks at how this is a complete outlier from how teams usually win in these situations. After that, he praises Saros as he's having a tremendous year in Nashville and how that team reminds him of the Rangers in a little twisted way. He also breaks down Nashville's goals and what led to them being scores, especially the first one. Was it the doomed face off? Was it Dominik Simon that lost his man on the left side of the ice? He also didn't like how Casey DeSmith played the third goal, which basically put the game out of reach. He also goes in on the power play and the issues that the unit is facing and then wraps up the show by debunking some Ben Chiarot rumors.

The Pittsburgh Penguins became winners again on Sunday as they took down the Carolina Hurricanes. Hunter starts out the show by touching on the key points from Sunday's game and he starts with the Penguins' pretty bad third period. He speaks about how the team was able to overcome an onslaught from Carolina and how sometimes, you simply just have to win ugly. He brings up Tristan Jarry's stellar play and how he bailed the team out on numerous occasions. After that, Hunter shouts out the depth scoring for showing up yet again after Ron Hextall called them out just a few days prior. Can those players get back to where they were earlier in the season? How will the team fare against Carolina in the playoffs? He then looks at the latest Penguins trade rumors with the Canucks and if a deal makes sense. Which player does Hunter prefer? Can there be a match? Finally, Hunter previews Tuesday's matchup against Nashville as the tough schedule continues.

What a statement win by the Pittsburgh Penguins! Hunter has a full game recap ready to go for this one and he starts out by touching on the depth scoring returning when it needed to most. He first goes into Mike Matheson's goal and how he was able to make quite the impact with this return. He breaks down the goal and then touches on how he can't be the defenseman that gets shipped out if the team makes a trade. He then breaks down Mark Friedman's goal and how he continues to impress with this small sample size. Is he able to step into a larger role if a defenseman is moved? How high up in the lineup should he be able to play? He also shouts out Tristan Jarry for holding down the fort after the couple of goals that Vegas scored in the second. He also touches on Valtteri Puustinen's debut and how he should continue to get more of a look, plus has some listener takeaways to end the show. All that, plus much more on this episode of Locked On Penguins.

Kasperi Kapanen might have reached the point of no return for the Pittsburgh Penguins. He looks to be scratched for tomorrow's game against Las Vegas and Hunter discusses whether this is the right thing to do. Could a trade be coming? Hunter also weighs that possibility while also looking at the Penguins' recent callup. That's right, Valtteri Puustinen was called up by the Penguins today in a move that shocked some people, including Hunter. Could he be replacing Kapanen in the lineup? Where should the team slot him in if he does get some ice time? Could this be the final thing the team does before making a trade? Hunter then previews Friday's game against the Golden Knights and how they match up against the Penguins, plus some keys to how the Penguins win. He then closes the show with some updates on Kris Letang's contract talks as there may hopefully be a deal done soon.

Hunter is back with a jam-packed episode of Locked On Penguins and there is A LOT to get to. He starts by offering his takeaways of the game against the Panthers from Tuesday night and how the Penguins actually looked pretty good. He then gets to Kris Letang's mistakes and how those cost the Penguins a shot towards the end of the game. That said, it's probably an outlier. He goes into the numbers and how the Pens went toe-to-toe with a juggernaut and then goes into how the team tied the game for a brief period in the second period. What about the Penguins makes them never out of a game? He gets to that as well, before going into the hot stove. Does it make sense for the Penguins to trade Marino and Rodrigues for Boeser? Is now the time to sell high on Marino? What about Garland for Marino? Would that make more sense? All that, plus the Penguins' struggles at home, coming up on this episode of Locked On Penguins.

The Pittsburgh Penguins are back in action on Tuesday night as the Florida Panthers come to town for the second and final time this season!

After that, he goes into some practice notes and breaks down how important Teddy Blueger will be on the fourth line. He explains how it's now or never for ZAR to start producing offensively with Blueger back and how HCMS may use that line going forward. Finally. Hunter breaks down Brian Burke's comments to the media and why it could make sense for the Penguins to be a bit quiet at the trade deadline. All that, plus much more, on this episode of Locked On Penguins.

The Pittsburgh Penguins have ended their back-to-back getting 3/4 points, though it was overshadowed by the officials. Hunter starts out the show by touching on how great the game was and how these teams need to meet in the playoffs for a seven-game series. He then gets to the elephant in the room about the NHL's officiating and how it ruined the end of the game. He dives into the Letang/Trocheck situation and how the refs should've called both guys off or none at all. He then squashes the rumors that the "Pens get all the calls" before diving into Casey DeSmith's play. Has he earned his job back? Does the team need a backup goaltender at the deadline? Hunter also breaks down the first period with both goals and how Crosby continues to be a machine. All that, plus much more on this episode of Locked On Penguins.

Utter DOMINATION by the Pittsburgh Penguins tonight! Hunter dives into perhaps the game of the year by the Penguins as they were ready right from the jump. He breaks down Heinen's goal and how it was all started by Evgeni Malkin as he was a menace all night. He also touches on the play of Kasperi Kapanen on that goal as he made one of the finest decisions he's made all year. After that, he gets to how this is the blueprint for the Penguins to go on a Stanley Cup run, plus gets into Geno's revenge on Bellemare. It was 'The Shift Pt. 2" for Geno and all it needed was a vintage slapshot like we all saw against the Philadelphia Flyers. Hunter also gives his thoughts on Mark Friedman and how he continues to be a lunatic, plus ponders the question if the Lightning have a problem against the Penguins. Of course, the show ends with the listener takeaway segment before previewing what's to come on Friday.

The Pittsburgh Penguins are set to be back in action on Thursday as they have a date with the defending champs! Hunter previews that matchup a bit later in the show and first starts out the show with some prospect talk! Where will Frasca and Gauthier play for the rest of the season? Do they have a chance to be on the team at some point next season? Hunter also explains why it's great that the Penguins can get prospects for free because you never truly know what can happen. He then goes over some practice notes and looks at Teddy Blueger's impending return. Is he likely to play on Thursday? If not Thursday, will he go Friday? How important is he for this forward group? Hunter answers all of those questions before previewing Thursday's matchup against the Lightning and then going into some trade options from the Sabres! The Penguins sent two scouts to look at their game against the Leafs on Wednesday. Is Tage Thompson an option? What about Olofsson? Jeff Skinner? All that, plus much more on this episode of Locked On Penguins.
