Tyler Kennedy doesn't think Mike Sullivan would have played and given an opportunity to Ben Kindel like Dan Muse has. Erik Karlsson seemingly called out Sullivan by saying you need to do things that you're good at, not what someone tells you to do. Dan Muse has set up the Penguins in a good way.
Would you trade Tristan Jarry when the Penguins return from Sweden? Jarry has been ok but Silovs and Murashov are the future. Tyler Kennedy thinks it's way too soon for people to try and compare Sergei Murashov to Marc-Andre Fleury. Ben Kindel scored his first goal very early in his career and has the confidence he belongs in the NHL.

The Steelers activated Will Howard today. Is there any shot he becomes a good QB in the NFL? Or should we just look at the draft stock and give him no chance? It's easy to point to the Steelers as the blame here more than anything, but the guys discussed what he could look like if given an opportunity, referencing his numbers and what he had to work with at Ohio State. The Fan vs The Fans. Former Penguin Tyler Kennedy joined the show. TK said Erik Christensen had some of the best hands in hockey that he's ever seen – relating to the Penguins' struggles in shootouts. Tyler said the Penguins are starting to win him over, but the last 2 games have been very tough ones to lose. The guys discussed the difficulty between winning Stanley Cups back-to-back versus winning Cups a few years apart. Is Erik Karlsson a ‘born loser,' like Poni says?

Former Penguin Tyler Kennedy joined the show. The Penguins have made a plethora of moves, including the promotion of Sergei Murashov, who could be the goaltender of the future. TK said if this kid has great early returns, it creates a ‘good, tough' decision for the Penguins when Tristan Jarry is healthy. He suggested the team putting Jarry on waivers if Murashov shows out. Tyler said it will be a tough transition in terms of crowd noise and attendance, as well as the uptick in the pace of play. He will likely get his first action against Alex Ovechkin, the greatest goal scorer of all-time. The guys asked Tyler about the collapse in Toronto the other night when the Penguins held a 3-0 lead after 2 periods.
We continued to react to the Steelers standing pat at the trade deadline. Poni had a gripe with the people who cover the team, many of which are on our airwaves. Almost all of them lauded the team for not making a single move yesterday, giving the team an A+ for their work. Poni believes the same people would have given the team the same grade if they had made moves. The Fan vs The Fans. Former Penguin Tyler Kennedy joined the show.

Tyler played in the Celebrity Hoops for Hospice charity basketball game that Austin PA announced on Wednesday. Harrison Brunicke and Ben Kindel are playing well as teenagers. The Penguins have to determine if they should send them to juniors or keep them on the team and earn a year of service time.

Mike Tomlin painted a pretty picture for the Steelers going forward after a bye week in which they received a lot of help. The Bengals also made a move and acquired Joe Flacco with the game in Cincy looming next Thursday. Is it safe to put this hay in the barn for the next 2 games? Chris was close to saying the Browns will come in here and beat the Steelers, sighting the close game they played against the Vikings. Should the Steelers be on upset alert? Tomlin-ism of the Week – Why did we see so little of Pat Freiermuth (and Jonnu Smith) against the Vikings? Former Penguin Tyler Kennedy joined the show. TK said he would sign up for the Penguins being the worst team in hockey if it meant Gavin McKenna was on the roster this time next year. Is it more beneficial for McKenna to play in college, like he's doing at Penn State, or junior hockey? Tyler thinks we will be pleasantly surprised by how this team performs this season, giving credit to Dan Muse for a different voice in charge. TK believes multiple stars will be on the move at the trade deadline – Evgeni Malkin, Bryan Rust and Rickard Rakell. He thinks Geno would be willing to waive his no-movement clause to play for the Florida Panthers.
