Locked On Penguins - Daily Podcast On The Pittsburgh Penguins

The Penguins will play their final game ahead of the Olympic break, and it's against the red-hot Buffalo Sabres! The Penguins head up to Buffalo for their final game before they get a few weeks off during the Olympics, and it's against a team that has been one of the hottest in the league. They take a look at Buffalo's roster, who's been driving this turnaround, and how the Penguins can get to the break on a high note. (0:00) The Penguins will head to Buffalo shorthanded as they'll be without the services of Rickard Rakell, Blake Lizotte, and possibly Noel Accari. This means Rutger McGroarty will draw back in, along with Kevin Hayes, and Avery Hayes has been recalled from the AHL. (13:10) Finally, defenseman Caleb Jones has been suspended for 20 games for a PED violation. Also, the Penguins announced that former GM Craig Patrick has been recovering in the hospital after suffering a stroke in December. (22:55) Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The Penguins were unable to hold onto multiple leads on Long Island on Tuesday night, and now the playoff race has gotten a lot tighter. Hunter and Patrick begin the show discussing the Penguins’ overtime loss to the New York Islanders and how, for the first time in a long time, goaltending appeared to be the main issue (1:20). They also get into some of the overtime struggles, and Patrick lays down a HEATED rant about the uncalled spearing penalty (18:50). Finally, it’s Wednesday, and that means it’s time to hand out the MVP of the week in another Warrior Helmet Wednesday! (26:20) Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The Penguins played arguably their worst game of the season on Monday night, losing 3-2 at home to the Ottawa Senators. Patrick and Hunter begin the program discussing a no-show, low-effort loss by the Penguins to the Senators. What went wrong for the Penguins? Well, just about everything. From defensive zone coverage to offensive production, the Penguins could do nothing right on Monday, and a lot of it came back to haunt them. (0:00) Another big aspect of Monday's loss was the officiating and another annoying lack of consistency. However, it wasn't all bad, just mostly bad, as the penalty kill, Arturs Silovs, and Ben Kindel tried their best to pull the Penguins out of their slumber. (13:45) Finally, the Penguins will play their biggest game of the year tonight when they head to Long Island for a mid-season Metro matchup with massive implications.

The Penguins winning streak has reached six games after they got a win over their former coach and his new club. Hunter and Patrick first take a look at the Penguins’ 2016 Stanley Cup 10-year ceremony which even made Sidney Crosby tear up. (2:00) Then, they recap the game, which saw the Penguins blitz the Rangers for the first two periods, only to let up late. Fortunately, they were able to hold on and get the clean two points, but concerns about holding a lead might be back. Then, the Penguins will take on a team tonight in the Ottawa Senators who have given them fits for the past few years. How they can get a win, and who need to step up for the Penguins (20:30). Finally, a big week looms before the Olympic break, including a big Metro showdown on Long Island. (29:20) Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The Penguins' winning streak increased to five straight after absolutely crushing the Chicago Blackhawks 6-2! Patrick and Hunter recap the Penguins' dominant win over the Blackhawks and how the team was able to do it without contributions from their biggest stars. Thanks to contributions from Egor Chinakhov, Anthony Mantha, Ben Kindel, and Connor Dewar, the Penguins didn't need their big guns on Thursday night. (0:00) Then, the miserable New York Rangers come to town on Saturday afternoon for a Stanley Cup reunion game, but for the 2026 Penguins, focusing on the worst team in the Eastern Conference is more important than looking back on a championship from 10 years ago. (13:43). Finally, it's Friday, and it's a trade deadline-focused Fan Take Friday! They react to some of your ideas for who the Penguins could target should they take a swing at the deadline.

The Pittsburgh Penguins will welcome back young forward Rutger McGroarty into the lineup tonight against the Chicago Blackhawks! Hunter and Patrick begin the show, taking a look at the new lines since Bryan Rust is out for the next three games (1:00). They discuss McGroarty being on the third line and why they're intrigued about it since he has shown some nice chemistry with Ben Kindel earlier in the season. They also discuss Justin Brazeau being brought up to the first line, and Pat also gives himself a "pat" on the back, if you will, for calling that. Ilya Solovyov will make his Penguins debut, and the boys discuss what fans can expect from him before previewing Thursday's game (11:00). They discuss how great Connor Bedard has been and give insight into how the Penguins can attack the Blackhawks, since they aren't good defensively. Finally, they discuss how the Penguins really need to bank some points over the next week since the schedule is very soft. (22:40). Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

While the trade deadline is still pretty far away, some Metropolitan Division teams have been making moves - so should the Penguins follow suit? Patrick and Hunter begin the show looking at the moves the New York Islanders have made recently, and if that should force Kyle Dubas and the Penguins' hands. They also look at some possibilities the team could make ahead of or at the NHL trade deadline. (0:00) Then, with the big club off for a few days, they take a look at the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins, who, despite losing some good talent to trades and injury, are still chugging right along. (13:24) Finally, it's Wednesday, and that means it's time to hand out the MVP of the week in another Warrior Helmet Wednesday! (24:12) Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The NHL’s Department of Player Safety announced that Bryan Rust will be suspended for three games. Hunter and Patrick break down the news that Rust has been suspended for three games for his hit to the head of Vancouver Canucks’ forward Brock Boeser. Is it a fair suspension, or is this another inconsistency from the DOPS? (1:10) With Rust set to miss the next three games, they discuss who can replace him in the lineup. Will it be Kevin Hayes? Rutger McGroarty? Someone else? (10:00) Finally, Hunter gives his thoughts on what he saw at Penguins practice on Tuesday. (20:00) Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The Penguins got their first 4-game western road swing sweep since 2018 with a 3-2 win over the Vancouver Canucks! Patrick and Hunter begin the show recapping the Penguins' fourth-straight win, this time against the Canucks. A lot of the victory could be attributed to the play of Stuart Skinner, who saved the Penguins' bacon several times throughout the game. Skinner moves to 7-1 as the Penguins' goalie and continues to make his case to be the full-time starter. Along with Skinner's solid play, it was another great performance from rookie Ben Kindel, who broke his goal-scoring drought with a two-goal night in front of more than 150 friends and family. (0:00) A downside of the game on Sunday was a play late in the game by Bryan Rust. Rust's dirty hit should probably get him a call from the Department of Player Safety. They also go over a disallowed goal, the play of the second line, and much more. (13:18) Finally, they get you set for a light week ahead, where they'll welcome the Chicago Blackhawks and New York Rangers to PPG Paints Arena for two games that can solidify their spot as a playoff team.

The Penguins went into Edmonton and asserted themselves with a dominant 6-2 win over the Oilers! Hunter and Patrick recap a surprisingly dominant performance by the Penguins on Thursday night. (1:00) Three goals in 37 seconds rattled former Penguins goalie Tristan Jarry, and Edmonton was unable to recover from there. The Penguins also did a tremendous job of shutting down the Oilers’ biggest contributors, notably Connor McDavid. On Sunday, they’ll have a chance to make it a perfect 4-0 road trip when they close out their Western swing against the lowly Vancouver Canucks.

Despite the absences of Kris Letang and Erik Karlsson, the Penguins were able to earn a 4-1 win over the Calgary Flames! Patrick and Hunter begin the show recapping a very professional victory by the Penguins on Wednesday night in Calgary. Thanks to simple, smart hockey, the Penguins were able to shut down the Flames' attack and earn two crucial points in the standings. (0:00) Thanks to the Penguins' win and some help from other teams, they now sit second in the division - so is this team really good? Patrick and Hunter seem to think so, but how far can they take this? (11:53) Finally, the Penguins will face a team they have not matched up well against in the past few years, the Edmonton Oilers. How can they slow down the Oilers' attack, minimize McDavid, and turn this into a great road trip? They get into that to close out the show! (24:40) Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The Penguins are reportedly interested in swinging a MASSIVE offseason trade for a young superstar! Before Hunter and Patrick get into that, they get you set for the Penguins vs. Calgary Flames game tonight and how the Penguins can get some payback for a loss earlier this month. It’ll require a good start and staying on the Flames for a full 60 minutes. (1:50). Then, reports have surfaced that the Penguins might find themselves in the market for Dallas Stars’ young superstar Jason Robertson. (18:30). While unlikely, the possibility does exist for the Penguins to get him out of Dallas - but how likely? Finally, it’s Wednesday that means it’s time to hand out the MVP of the week in Warrior Helmet Wednesday! (27:00) Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

Connor Dewar helped power the Penguins to a 6-3 win over the Seattle Kraken on Monday afternoon, and now they're making a move in the Metro! Patrick and Hunter begin the show recapping a very professional effort and victory on Monday in Seattle. Thanks to a two-goal performance from Connor Dewar, punching back against Seattle, and another quality start from Stuart Skinner, the Penguins have created some distance from those chasing them in the Metropolitan Division. (0:00) That leads us to a bigger conversation about how good this team actually is. We begin talking about the goaltending. After another good start by Skinner, has he passed Arturs Silovs as the 1A? Along with that, Rutger McGroarty has been sent to the AHL for conditioning, but does he have a spot in the lineup once he comes back? (13:05) Finally, what should Kyle Dubas do before the Olympics and at the trade deadline? The Penguins clearly look like a playoff team, but does this mean they should go shopping at the deadline?

The Penguins kick off their Western Canada swing this week after dropping a point to a divisional rival on Saturday. Hunter and Patrick begin the show recapping a very familiar loss over the weekend (1:20). The Penguins played well in the first and third periods, as well as overtime, against Columbus on Saturday night, but a lazy second period put them behind the eight-ball and left them with just a single point after losing in a shootout once again. Then, the Penguins will take on the Seattle Kraken in a Monday matinee matchup (14:51). Much like some of their recent competition, it’s a team that can defend but can’t score. Simply put, the Penguins will need a 60-minute effort to get two points to start the road trip. Finally, as the Penguins embark on this Western swing, it’s a chance for them to bank points and put themselves solidly in the playoff picture with the Olympic break looming.

The Penguins got back into the win column against the Flyers on Thursday night thanks to a dominant performance by the power play! Patrick and Hunter begin the show recapping the Penguins' 6-3 victory over the Flyers that included three power play goals, another Sidney Crosby goal, and some great goaltending in the second period by Stuart Skinner. (0:00) Then, it's another Metropolitan Division matchup on Saturday night when the Columbus Blue Jackets and their new coach, Rick Bowness, come to town. The Penguins will need another two clean points, and the special teams will have to help them. (17:32) Finally, with only one game this weekend, Fan Take Friday is back!

The Battle of Pennsylvania has another chapter to be written tonight at PPG Paints Arena! Hunter and Patrick preview tonight's matchup by first looking at the Flyers (1:02), who have lost four in a row and are struggling to score and get saves. Then, they look at the Penguins, who are also struggling to score, but are playing well in their own zone and are getting great goaltending. Can they get out of this offensive funk that they're in? (10:00) They discuss how important this game is in the standings since both teams are tied in points. Finally, two of the Penguins' top prospects are heading to the AHL All-Star Classic, and it's very deserved. (20:22) Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The Penguins were able to grab a point against the Tampa Bay Lightning, but their struggles in the shootout continued on Tuesday night. Patrick and Hunter begin the show recapping what a surprisingly defensive battle between the Tampa Bay Lightning and Pittsburgh Penguins on Tuesday. Despite only getting a point and dropping the game in a shootout, there was plenty of good to take away, including the Pens' defensive efforts and the non-shootout goaltending. (0:00) Along with the good defensive effort, the Penguins took one of the best teams in the NHL to the brink despite missing one of their best players. Thanks to good performances from Arturs Silovs, Kris Letang, and others, the Penguins showed a blueprint for how to win games over the next couple of weeks. (12:44) Finally, it's Wednesday, which means it's time to once again to hand out our MVP of the week as part of Warrior Helmet Wednesday! (27:45) Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The Penguins will be without the services of defenseman Erik Karlsson for at least two weeks, striking a massive blow to their blue line. Hunter and Patrick begin the show previewing tonight’s matchup against the RED HOT Tampa Bay Lightning, who come to town on a 10-game win streak (1:00). What can the Penguins do to get a win against the NHL’s hottest team? Then, the Penguins announced on Tuesday morning that Karlsson will be out for “at least” two weeks with a lower-body injury (13:14). Who needs to step up, and could this be the thing that derails this season? Finally, Blake Lizotte signed a three-year extension on Monday, and it is a very deserved one. (23:00).

The Penguins came out of the weekend winless and missed a big opportunity to make their move in the Eastern Conference standings. Patrick and Hunter begin the show discussing the Penguins' two losses this weekend, first against the Calgary Flames and then against the Boston Bruins. On Sunday, it was a lack of adjustments and questionable lineup decisions that led to a 1-0 shutout at the hands of the Bruins. (0:00) Then, it's time to talk about goaltending. While it was low on the list of problems for the Penguins, it might be time to give Stuart Skinner an extended look after another very solid outing on Sunday. They also touch on Kevin Hayes, Dan Muse, and Ben Kindel. (13:47) Finally, the Penguins return home for three big games against three formidable opponents, with Tampa Bay, Philadelphia, and Columbus all coming to town.

The Penguins got their sixth straight win on Thursday night with a big win over the New Jersey Devils. Hunter and Patrick begin the show recapping an extremely solid effort against the Devils (1:45). Despite a slow start, goaltender Stuart Skinner kept the Penguins in it, and then for the next 40 minutes, the Penguins took over the game. Thanks to big goals from the fourth line and Evgeni Malkin, the Penguins have now beaten every divisional opponent at least once. Then, the Penguins will be back in action this weekend, starting on Saturday against another struggling team, the Calgary Flames (12:55). Much like New Jersey, the Penguins will need to take advantage of a team that has lost four in a row. Finally, the Penguins’ big weekend wraps up on Sunday in Boston where they’ll take on a top-heavy Bruins squad. (21:10). Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
