Penguins heading into a MASSIVE back-to-back against Columbus and Toronto
Locked On Penguins - Daily Podcast On The Pittsburgh PenguinsAbout this episode
The Penguins will have a chance to grab four huge points this weekend when they face the Columbus Blue Jackets and Toronto Maple Leafs. Patrick Damp is flying solo today as Hunter Hodies enjoys a much-needed day off this holiday weekend. Patrick begins the show, previewing the Friday night showdown with the Blue Jackets, a team that is reeling, having lost three straight and four of their last five. The Penguins need to take advantage of a team that is struggling, especially in their division. Tristan Jarry returns to the net after a strong performance against Buffalo, and the big guns need to be the X-factor against Columbus. (0:00) Then, the Penguins return home on Saturday night for a rematch with the Toronto Maple Leafs. Much like Columbus, Toronto has been struggling as of late, and a solid 60-minute effort against the Leafs could be just what the doctor ordered for the Penguins before a hectic December schedule. The Penguins will have to play all three periods and shut down the Leafs' top talent, so can they do it? (12:13) Finally, it's another Fan Take Friday! Patrick answers questions about trades, playoff position, and Dan Muse's lineup decisions as of late. (22:39) Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
