The Penguins don't own a first round pick, so what now?

The Pittsburgh Penguins acquired Kevin Hayes and a second-round pick from the St. Louis Blues for virtually...nothing! Well, almost nothing. On this bonus show, Hunter and Patrick discuss if this is a good move by Kyle Dubas and analyze the impact that Hayes will have on this roster. They also look at what could come next and what this move tells us about the long-term plans that Kyle Dubas has for this team. Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms!

The NHL Draft comes to The Sphere in Las Vegas and on this edition of Locked On Penguins, Taylor Haase joins Patrick Damp from Vegas to discuss some potential picks the Penguins could make! While the Penguins do not currently own a first-round pick, they do still have six picks to make this weekend. Patrick and Taylor discuss some of the prospects she interviewed at the NHL Scouting Combine in Buffalo earlier this summer, what their upsides are, some of their downsides, and if there is a chance any of them could fall to the Penguins in the second round or deeper into the draft. Finally, Taylor gives her thoughts on what Kyle Dubas is thinking going into the summer after she had a one-on-one chat with the Penguins president earlier this year! Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!eBay MotorsFor parts that fit, head to eBay Motors and look for the green check.

After re-signing backup goaltender Alex Nedeljkovic, speculation on the status of Tristan Jarry has begun. Is a trade worth it, what would the return be, and what could the Penguins expect? In this episode, Patrick and Hunter discuss how goaltending trades are often underwhelming, not the greatest bet, and what we could see if Jarry is dealt this offseason. In the second segment, with game seven of the Stanley Cup Final looming, they look back on some painful and joyful game sevens in the history of the Penguins. Finally, does Edmonton finish the comeback or do the Panthers close out the Oilers in their final chance to do so? Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!eBay MotorsFor parts that fit, head to eBay Motors and look for the green check.

The Pittsburgh Penguins surprised everyone by re-signing Alex Nedeljkovic on Thursday and that's where Hunter and Patrick start Friday's show. They dive into what this means for the goaltending this upcoming season and how the Penguins need to utilize Nedeljkovic. They also dive into how they have more questions than answers right now with this position before looking at what this means for Tristan Jarry. Will he get traded this offseason? Is it smart to have almost $8 million tied up into goaltending? Is it riskier to go into the season with Nedeljkovic and Blomqvist? Finally, they preview Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Final on Monday night and ponder whether the Panthers will finally close it out or if we'll get to hear La Bamba one more time.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!eBay MotorsFor parts that fit, head to eBay Motors and look for the green check.

It's not a secret the Penguins are looking to upgrade their third-line center position and there's one in Colorado who is available via a trade. Patrick and Hunter discuss how Kyle Dubas could acquire a player like Ross Colton and reinvigorate the team's center depth. Next, with teams like New Jersey and Washington making big moves, the Metropolitan Division is loading up and the Penguins have to respond. They talk about what needs the Penguins have and how they should avoid any panic moves. Finally, Kyle Dubas loves his guys so should they take a run at Ilya Mikheyev?Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!eBay MotorsFor parts that fit, head to eBay Motors and look for the green check.

The Pittsburgh Penguins dropped some news on Wednesday as Kirk MacDonald has been hired to be the new head coach in Wilkes Barre. Hunter and Patrick start the show by discussing the new bench boss and what he brings to the table. They also look at how this is a hire that doesn't appear to have any ties to Dubas or Spezza and how he's been successful everywhere he's gone. After that, they discuss the Jacob Markstrom deal and how that could impact trade talks surrounding Tristan Jarry if the Penguins want to deal him this offseason. They look at how his stats are a bit similar to Markstrom's and how that return could be something that the Penguins get for Jarry. Finally, they recap Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Final and discuss whether Connor McDavid has already locked up the Conn Smythe. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!eBay MotorsFor parts that fit, head to eBay Motors and look for the green check.

Could the Penguins give the Calgary Flames a call for forward Andrew Mangiapane? Patrick and Hunter discuss a new report linking the Penguins to Mangiapane. They look into what a trade would cost, if he's worth acquiring, and whether or not some of his numbers are as good as they may seem. Next, the Florida Panthers could join an exclusive club that only the 2009 Penguins and 1984 Oilers are a part of. With that in mind, they look back on the Penguins back-to-back finals trips in 2008 and 2009. Finally, do the Panthers close it out or does Edmonton stay alive? Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!eBay MotorsFor parts that fit, head to eBay Motors and look for the green check.
