The Pittsburgh Penguins' 18-year-old defensive prospect Harrison Brunicke continues to impress and that has Hunter and Patrick wondering if he's ready for primetime. The two discuss what has been a breakout camp and preseason for the young defenseman and if the Penguins should consider giving him a nine-game trial or even a spot for the whole year. The two go back and forth on the topic before moving on to the power play and how there continues to be a lot more movement, emphasis on net-front play, and less static play. They discuss how the process continues to be there but it has to translate over to the regular season. Finally, the injury bug is back...as if it went anywhere. The Penguins have a swath of injuries, including to Alex Nedeljkovic, which will put more pressure on Tristan Jarry to start the year. They also dive into an update on Erik Karlsson's status before ending the show.
