Can the Pittsburgh Penguins take down the San Jose Sharks on Saturday night?

It's a special Saturday episode of the Locked On penguins podcast as Hunter is joined by JD Young of Locked On Sharks to preview Saturday night's showdown between the two teams. They first start out by catching up with the Penguins and how inconsistent they've been this season before flipping it over to the Sharks/ Has the team finally committed to rebuilding? Is this a tank year for them? They also discuss Erik Karlsson and how he's found the fountain of youth this season before discussing each team's plans for the trade deadline. Hunter gets into how the Penguins BADLY need to remake their third line and how they could be in the goalie market before JD chimes in with how James Reimer could make sense for the Penguins as a 1B option behind Tristan Jary. He dives into his stats a little bit and also makes the case that he probably won't cost too much to acquire. He also throws Timo Meier out there and fantasizes about how good he would look next to Crosby or Malkin, even though Hunter argues that he could go on the team's third line. Finally, the two go over the keys for both teams to come out of this one with a victory as its the Penguins' final game before their bye week.
