How can the Penguins strike back on Saturday night?

Happy Saint Patrick's Day! The luck of the Irish was not to be for the Pittsburgh Penguins on Thursday night but maybe that will change for Saturday night. He's joined by Nick Zararis of the Liberty Blue podcast and of Locked On Flames to go over what went right for the Rangers on Thursday night while also looking at what went wrong for the Penguins. They start with how both teams started out of the gate, which heavily favored the Rangers. They look at how this was one of the finest performances of the season for the Rangers and how the Penguins weren't able to control the neutral zone as they did on Sunday. Hunter also doesn't like how the Penguins didn't test Shesterkin enough as he made everything look so easy. After that, the two touch on Sidney Crosby's greatness and how he might be starting to be underappreciated around the league. Is he the best grinder in the league now? Has his career been similar to Lebron's in the NBA? Hunter also wonders if he should be getting more love for being a finalist for the Hart Trophy since he's dragging this team to the playoffs. Finally, they preview Saturday's rubber match and give their keys for each team to take home the win.
