Who is under the most pressure this season for the Penguins?
The guests continue to roll in as we are now in the late stages of summer. Joining Wednesday's edition of the show is Matt Gajtka, formerly of DK Pittsburgh Sports, and they first discuss which Penguin players are under the most pressure heading into the season. They look at a player like Jeff Petry, who didn't perform up to expectations this season, along with Bryan Rust, before Matt brings up an obvious candidate in Sidney Crosby as he tries to defy time. They also look at Mike Sullivan and how he's under pressure to adjust before moving on to realistic expectations for Reilly Smith heading into this season. What sort of production should fans expect out of him? Is he going to get the team a few extra points due to his elite play on the PK? How different of a scorer is he, compared to Jason Zucker? The two jump into that before ending the show on a fun "What If?" note regarding what would've happened if the Penguins had drafted Patrice Bergeron in the 2003 NHL Draft? The two go into all kinds of scenarios, especially about future lotteries, before looking back at how great of a career Bergeron had. All that, plus much more, is on this episode of the Locked On Penguins podcast.
