Tyler Kennedy joins! The Penguins lost to Carolina for the 10th time in a shootout. The Islanders are the first team in NHL history to start 10-0 in overtime. TK thinks if the Penguins win two of their next four games, they will be in good shape. The schedule is very difficult moving forward.
Tyler Kennedy was stunned that Evgeni Malkin was suspended five games. Buffalo has won eight in a row and Toronto has lost eight in a row. We think Buffalo and Pittsburgh are two of the most invested hockey towns, as shown by the Gold Medal ratings. TK would be cautious with Sidney Crosby.

The NHL trade deadline is tomorrow at 3 p.m. What should the Penguins do? Andrew McCutchen has signed a minor-league deal with the Texas Rangers. Evgeni Malkin has been playing very well for the Penguins, but questions remain about his contract.
Tyler Kennedy thinks the template needs to be like Egor Chinakhov and acquire a young player who needs a big change of scenery. Bob thinks Dubas deserves credit for hiring Dan Muse, who Bob thinks has been terrific. Joe doesn't expect Dubas to make a big trade, but would you be in favor of it?

We waited with bated breath as Aaron Rodgers was being set to join The Pat McAfee Show. Donny was tasked with collecting the Q & A between the guys on the show and Rodgers. Is he coming back? Is he retiring? Is he going to test the market? Has Aaron Rodgers said anything? The guys took their guesses on what Rodgers will do. Former Penguin Tyler Kennedy joined the show. On the heels of the Aaron Rodgers interview, TK said confidently that Sidney Crosby will play hockey into his 40s. Tyler thinks the waiting game Kyle Dubas will play with Evgeni Malkin and his contract is the smart move to focus on the rest of this season. With the trade deadline looming, is Dubas going to stand pat? TK thinks there will be moves to improve the team, but isn't sure if it will be a sizable acquisition like Vincent Trocheck. TK thinks Trocheck could be swayed into the hometown thing and playing for the team he grew up watching.

The big breaking news of the day is Sidney Crosby being out for ‘at least' 4 weeks after the lower-body injury suffered last week in the Olympics. Does this ruin the Penguins' season? Historically, Evgeni Malkin has stepped up big when Crosby has been absent, but can he do that at 39? One of our biggest fans, and a massive Penguins fan, told us he was ‘spiraling' with this news. For as fun as this season has been and as fun as the US winning a gold medal was – was it all worth it? The guys don't think we should just accept the fact that the Olympics could very well cost the Penguins a playoff spot. Was Sidney Crosby really that close to playing in the Gold Medal game? Former Penguin Tyler Kennedy joined the show. TK reacted to the news of Sidney Crosby being out for ‘at least' a month as the Penguins pursue a playoff spot. Tyler expects Evgeni Malkin to step up, even at 39-years-old, like he has done in the past without Sid. He thinks Kyle Dubas will be aggressive as the trade deadline approaches. Dubas made another trade TK liked yesterday, moving on from one defenseman to acquire another. Tyler said it's very good that Geno got this time off because he's at the age where that is necessary in the middle of the season. Tyler admitted he would give Jack Hughes a standing ovation tomorrow night if he was at the game. TK told us a wild story about an injury he suffered off-the-ice during his career that he had to slyly lie about.

Were you happy with 3-on-3 hockey? Canada may have played better, but the USA stole the game with Connor Hellebuyck. Should the Penguins trade Stuart Skinner? What are the greatest moments in American sports history?
Pittsburgh Penguins analyst Tyler Kennedy joins us. TK, being Canadian, rooted for Canada and thought it was an incredible game. Were you happy with 3-on-3 hockey? Canada may have played better, but the USA stole the game with Connor Hellebuyck.
Tyler Kennedy joins the show! Did he celebrate as a US Citizen or a Canadian Citizen? When Jack Hughes scored, he said he was gutted but the rest of the house was celebratory.

Sidney Crosby was injured today in the latest matchup for Canada, a 4-3 OT win over Czechia. Is it time for NHL players to sit out of the games again? If Crosby's season is over, is any of this worth it? The players aren't forced to participate in the Olympics. If Crosby ever decided to not play in the games, it wouldn't alter his legacy whatsoever. What if Paul Skenes didn't want to pitch in the World Baseball Classic? Chris thinks a plus-sized exhibition shouldn't be the reason Crosby loses his season, and possibly his final Olympic games. Do people care about the Olympics? Caller thinks the Miracle on Ice wouldn't be a big deal if a movie wasn't made. Former Penguin Tyler Kennedy joined the show. TK reacted to the Sidney Crosby injury that took place in the Canada-Czechia game earlier. Tyler said a pep talk from Sid would not mean the injury isn't serious. Tyler's initial thought is that it will keep him out of the Olympics, but hopefully not a ton of Penguins games in the back half of the season. Tyler thinks there was a little maliciousness behind the hit from Radko Gudas that knocked Crosby out of the game. Tyler gave some insight on how much it means for Canadians to play in the Olympics or international games. TK isn't convinced the United States get by Sweden later today.
Former Penguin Tyler Kennedy comes on The Fan Hotline to react to hockey in the Olympics so far with Adam Crowley and Dorin Dickerson.

Hour 1 with Bob Pompeani, Joe Starkey, and Tyler Kennedy: How many Stanley Cups do the members of Team Canada and Team USA have? Bob would have been curious to see what Russia would have done in the Olympics. Tyler Kennedy wouldn't add an older veteran to assist the Penguins run to the playoffs. He thinks the Penguins need someone under 30 that is going to make an impact for a while.
Hour 2 with Bob Pompeani and Joe Starkey: Outside of Paul Skenes, who is the most important Pirate? Bob thinks Oneil Cruz needs to take a big step. When will Konnor Griffin be here? Paul Skenes said that in his exit meeting and conversations in the offseason the Pirates listened to him and others with the changes they made. We like hearing that Skenes had a say in the additions the Pirates made this offseason. Skenes said he doesn't have a new pitch.
Team Canada is off to a fast start in its first hockey game with Sid leading the charge. Tyler Kennedy wouldn't add an older veteran to assist the Penguins run to the playoffs. He thinks the Penguins need someone under 30 that is going to make an impact for a while. TK thinks a lot of guys on the Penguins are overachieving compared to what they've done in their careers before the Penguins.

Cam Heyward said Pittsburgh is the only place he wants to play after another All Pro (2nd team) performance from the DT this season. Are people back on Heyward's side after everything last offseason or are people still against him? BREAKING NEWS: The Steelers have hired Brian Angelichio as their OC and Joe Whitt Jr. as an assistant head coach. Both guys have connections to Mike McCarthy and Angelichio formerly coached TE at Pitt. What happened to the other OC candidates? Did the Steelers get their top guy? Former Penguin Tyler Kennedy joined the show. The guys had TK rank the 3 top goalies in the Penguins organization and he had Stuart Skinner at 1, even after a bad game last night. TK said Sergei Murashov still has some growing up to do to pass up either of the guys on the main roster. Tyler isn't ready to call Ben Kindel a superstar, but he really likes the returns from the rookie and thinks he will be a very solid 2nd line center. The guys continued to marvel over what Egor Chinakov has done in Pittsburgh. How should the Penguins approach the trade deadline?

Hour 1 with Bob Pompeani, Joe Starkey, and Tyler Kennedy: TK would 100% trade Sergei Murashov and a first-round pick for Robertson. It's an interesting question if the Penguins should buy this year. We miss Penguins trade rumors and big-time deals when they were good! Do the Penguins owe it to Sid and Malkin to make that trade and go for it?
