It was a busy Monday when it comes to the Pittsburgh Penguins and updates on their GM search. Hunter starts the show by diving into those updates and how the Penguins have finished their first round of interviews. He discusses the latest report from Pierre LeBrun and why it’s great seeing Eric Tulsky mentioned for the gig. That said, he does dive into why both Marc Bergevin and Peter Chiarelli should not be GMs again in this league since they didn’t do much of anything in their last stops. Also: What is Hunter’s dream Penguins front office based on the latest names? You can find that answer here, too. He then dives into Marcus Pettersson’s season in review and why he had his best one yet. He looks at the numbers and what he saw on the ice to assess his play before thinking about what he’s going to do next season and beyond. Remember when people wanted to trade him? Finally, he ends the show with some playoff talk as the Vegas Golden Knights took out the Edmonton Oilers on Sunday night.

I am not worried either. FSG is looking for people who are innovative and very into analytics guess what, Peter Chialeri nor Marc Bergevin fit that either of those qualites.
The suspense is killing me, I would def say Tulsky has to be a top the list. I think the ones who make it to the next round would be Tulsky, Karmanos, Darche, Botterill, maybe a couple of other people.
Everyone says a dark horse candidate, is Sam Ventura. Who knows two of these guys could be hired, one for the president of hockey ops and one for the GM. I am curious who would fill the assistant GM positions?
Easily, Pettersson could and should play with Letang next season on the top pair since it's pretty much I would say a foregone conclusion that Dumoulin is gone. Let Pettersson play with Letang, and then go out and sign a left hand D to play on the 2nd pair in the offseason. Pettersson is more than ready, to play on the top pair.
