The Pittsburgh Penguins got three out of a possible four points this weekend, and their win over Vegas was a dominant one. Hunter and Patrick dedicate the first two segments of the show to breaking down all of the positives from this weekend (1:15), as well as a couple of negatives. They discuss how Ben Kindel continues to impress and how Arturs Silovs is making a strong case to be the Game 1 starter in the playoffs if the Penguins get in. (6:00) They also discuss Bryan Rust’s consistency (21:00), why Evgeni Malkin should be re-signed, Egor Chinakhov’s release, the red-hot special teams, and so much more! Finally, the two discuss the week ahead and how the schedule is about to get really busy! (27:00)

Trade deadline is looming, what is Kyle thinking???
Pretty sure league rules say you can do three a''s or one c and two a's
Do the penguins trade Skinner at the deadline with Silovs playing at such a high level? Murashov seems ready for full time duty in the NHL.
3 of 4 points still tied with the Islanders and 6 up on the Caps in a very good spot if they keep it up
I am satisfied with the direction of the Pittsburgh Penguins
Really appreciated what you said about Rust. He's been my favorite player just about since he was first recalled. And I think he could be a great mentor for a guy like Avery Hayes in particular. I see lots of similarities there.
Great vibes around Pittsburgh right now. 5 outta 6 points is a good return so far banking some points while Sids out.
Hear me out LOP, but I really think Claude Giroux would be a great Center/wing option for Pittsburgh.
I know it sounds like blasphemy, but Ottawa is outta the playoffs and Giroux is a great faceoff man, grat on the PK, great IQ and also con contribute offensively.
Giroux wouldn't be expensive either, send Skinner there for Giroux and call up Muroshov from Wilkes.
If Pittsburgh goes into the playoffs vs NY Islanders with a Healthy Crosby & Giroux, they would win 65% of the faceoffs in a series vs Islanders, Captials or Hurricanes in round 2.
I think its worth a shot
I’d be okay with trading Rakell in the offseason in a move that possibly brings in a player like Jason Robertson for the longterm. If you can’t get a robo like player then re-sign Mantha to a 1 year extension. Sign Geno to a 1 year extension. Sign Chinakov to a 2-3 year deal. Sign Dewar to a 1 year extension. This forces McGroarty, Koivunen, Hayes, etc to have to compete for jobs. If Dewar is your 13th/14th forward then great, if he has to play then that means you aren’t giving a young guy a spot if they haven’t earned it.
Sign Shea to a 1 year deal and your defense is probably set cause the market sucks.
Sign Silovs and let him and Murashov battle it out for the starter role in the AHL and Blomqvist gets the starter job in WBS.
Let’s be real. We probably find a way to win if the terrible goalie interference call in the rangers game doesn’t happen. Could have been a 3-0 game there assuming we scored the 3rd goal that we actually did. Anyways then we absolutely DUMMIED the golden knights like they were nothing lol. 5 out of 6 points after the break sounds pretty good to me!
I always think 17 is just a younger Kunitz
