That's now six losses in a row for the Pittsburgh Penguins as things got worse on Thursday night. To start things off, Hunte roasts the team for their horrendous start in the first period as the game was lost within the opening couple of minutes. He looks at how their legs weren't there, which is unacceptable for a team that just had three days off. He then looks at how Casey DeSmith needed to do a better job keeping them in the game in that first period as he didn't like the second goal that he gave to Eichel. Following that, Hunter gets into how the Penguins looked in the second period before he again roasts the team for not getting anything out of it. He also is wary of the idea of Casey DeSmith getting the starter's reps going forward if Tristan Jarry is going to be out for longer than a day-to-day basis. DeSmith simply has to be better or this team could really fall out of it pretty quickly. Hunter also rips the front office for giving this coaching staff a bottom six that mostly can't score (except you, Brock McGinn, and Josh Archibald) and how the Penguins basically need their top six to score every night or its curtains. Following that, he ends the show thinking about if the Penguins really have any younger players that they can recall from WBS that could make a difference. All that, plus much more on this somber episode of Locked On Penguins.
