Which Penguins players will go BOOM or BUST in 2025-26?
Locked On Penguins - Daily Podcast On The Pittsburgh PenguinsAbout this episode
The Penguins have a lot of question marks heading into the 2025-26 season, including several players who could have big years or regressive years. Patrick and Hunter begin the show talking about some of the Penguins' boom or bust candidates for the upcoming season. They begin with goaltender Tristan Jarry; can he have a bounce-back year after a strong finish, or is he the goalie we all think that he is? They also look at defenseman Ryan Graves and whether or not a new coaching staff can bring him some kind of success, and two of the rookies who had big finishes to the year. Finally, the Nailers have hired Ryan Papaioannou as their 21st head coach, and he comes with a pretty sterling track record of development. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
