Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Penguins Offseason Opens + Nick Hart on the WBS Prospect Pipeline
Q: Which prospects are most likely to push for NHL ice time next season?
Nick highlights Owen Pickering as a primary candidate due to his size, versatility, and maturation, along with Tristan Broz's continued development and Ville Koivunen's ongoing adjustment to the NHL pace.
Dan Answers Your Questions on Dubas Presser
Q: If you are General Manager Kyle Dubas, hypothetical, but with intention, who is your primary targets this summer if you've come around to consider some?
Dan outlines a tiered approach, noting that big names like Jason Robertson or Auston Matthews are unlikely to be affordable for the Penguins, but discusses promising younger players (e.g., Shane Wright, Mason McTavish, Mason Marchment) and other centers who could be available, while weighing feasibility, fit, and the players' development trajectories against cap realities.
[FULL EPISODE] No Pucks Given: Locker Room Cleanout — Is Geno Gone?
Q: If Kyle Dubas does not offer you a contract for next season, will you consider playing for another team?
Malkin confirms he would consider leaving if the deal isn't right, framing it as a practical possibility rather than a firm commitment to stay regardless.
Penguins Roster Analysis and League Officiating Issues
Q: Is there a realistic chance the Penguins buy out Chris LaTang (drawing on cap considerations)?
Dan outlines that a buyout is possible but comes with cap implications; it could save a few million dollars with new ownership but would still count against the cap, making it a careful, multi-factor decision.
Penguins Roster Analysis and League Officiating Issues
Q: Should we be concerned that Cruz Lucius hasn't signed yet?
Dan suggests not overreacting; Lucius is unlikely to be a 20-goal scorer for the Penguins and is more organizational depth, with the decision not being pivotal to the current playoff push.
