After getting a 9-game tryout, it was clear Harrison Brunicke wasn’t quite ready for full-time action in the NHL, but will he be this year? Hunter and Patrick begin the show by continuing their season-in-review series, this time focusing on Brunicke. (1:35) He showed some flashes at the NHL level in nine games, but ultimately wasn’t ready for the big time. After success at the junior and AHL levels, it’s time for him to take the next step. Then, the QMJHL’s Defenseman of the Year, Tommy Bleyl, could be available at 22 for the Penguins in about a week, so should he be the pick? (15:00) They dive into one of the more exciting prospects at this year’s draft. Finally, Taylor Gauthier re-signed this week to a one-year deal, and the ECHL standout will look to take the leap to the AHL next season. (25:30)

I don't think any goalie can be the next goalie. Everyone lets in long range shots from the blue line. These goalies are weak!
I am satisfied with the direction of the Pittsburgh Penguins
I'm hoping Brunicke is able to claim the righty spot on the 3rd pair. That would leave the pairs like Wotherspoon-Karlsson, Girard-Letang, and Solovyov-Brunicke. That's just as it stands, I'm guessing Dubas may re-sign Shea and he'll also probably get another dman through free agency or trade.
Can we get a sloppy seconds channel with Damp and Horwatt from Tip of the Iceberg?

This and Rakell might be Hextall’s 2 best moves and only good moves if I’m being honest. Which just goes to show that even a blind squirrel can find a nut every once in a while.
Kesselring will have a chance to play in SJ, smart pickup for not a lot.
Just started hearing about tommy blehl a few weeks ago. He is fun to watch and i agree he is pretty good in his own zone for being undersized. Offensively he probably has the most upside of any dman in the draft. I think he could be there at 22 do to his size. The smaller dman tend to slide in the draft unless you have cale makar upside.
