Previewing Penguins-Rangers, plus what should the GM's be focusing on during the GM Meetings?

The Pittsburgh Penguins and New York Rangers are set to meet again on Thursday as this rivalry continues to build and build. Hunter starts the show by previewing the game and discussing what the Penguins need to do in order to take down the Rangers for a third time. He discusses their play in the first 2 periods on Sunday and what went into that, plus how the special teams have to be just as good, if not better since the Rangers boast one of the top PPs in the league. He then discusses how Mike Sullivan has changed up his approach in the last calendar year to the Rangers and how it's paid off in a big way (despite the series loss last May). He then brings up how the Penguins HAVE to get traffic in front of Igor Shesterkin the way they did in the first four games of the series last year before he pivots to some injury updates. When is the earliest that Kulikov can return? What will the pairings look like if both Petry and Rutta can't go tomorrow? He also provides a quick update on their statuses for the game (it's a good one) before he finishes the show by discussing what he would want to be changed for the league during the GM Meetings this week.
