The Penguins decided to make it worse for yinz...

In Penguins fashion, they had to say "hold my beer" when it comes to the worst loss of the season. Just one night after the Penguins laid an egg against the New York Islanders, they blew a 4-0 lead to the Detroit Red Wings, and...yeah, we have a lot to talk about. Hunter starts the show by slamming head coach Mike Sullivan for continuing to deploy Brian Dumoulin and Jeff Carter like nothing is wrong with them. He looks at some stats which show just how bad they've been in a recent stretch and why they cannot be trusted in late-game situations anymore. He also looks at how it's time for Sullivan to stop being stubborn and catering to veterans who obviously don't have it anymore. He goes into why Ty Smith should start seeing some minutes and why even a move to the wing for Carter probably won't save him. After that, he ponders the question if things have gone stale for the Penguins in the Sullivan era and why some fans need to "tone it down" a bit when it comes to him, even though criticism is valid. Finally, he does get into some positive things for the Penguins to take from this performance (Hello, Jason Zucker?). All that, plus much more on this episode of Locked On Penguins.
