Despite the OT struggles, the team is starting to turn it around...

Sunday's loss might not show it but the Pittsburgh Penguins might be starting to turn a corner. Hunter begins with that for Monday's show as the Penguins dominated the New Jersey Devils on Sunday afternoon. He looks at how this was a pure puck luck loss by the Penguins as they just couldn't put the puck in the back of the net. He also shouts out the defensive effort as they held one of the more prolific teams in the league to just one goal in 60 minutes of action before the OT shenanigans happened. Speaking of that, Hunter slams the Penguins for dropping that game in OT and analyzes what has gone on in all of these OT games. Is this deployment? Are they trying to do too much? Why aren't they patient enough? He then goes into how this was a classic game where the Penguins badly needed a goal from their bottom six but to course, they could not get one. He dives into some stats over the last 7-8 games and how it still hasn't done nearly enough. Hunter then looks at some individual player performances and how the team has gotten a massive lift from Tristan Jarry and Jeff Petry since they returned on Friday, plus how they're starting to bank more points in the standings. Speaking of that, he ends the show with a Pens-Cats preview for Tuesday night as the Penguins have a massive game at home against a team behind them in the standings.
