Kyle Dubas gives his mini State of the Penguins address

Locked On Penguins - Daily Podcast On The Pittsburgh Penguins

Kyle Dubas spoke about the current state of the Penguins, where they stand on a retooling, and what they have to do to improve this season. Hunter and Patrick discuss Dubas's comments about how the Penguins have to be better at defending leads and closing out games as well as his plan to both build this team for the present and the future. Then, they look at the lines from practice and how there's now suddenly a logjam at forward with some players possibly looking at time in the press box or back down in the AHL. It also appears that even with the impending return of Kris Letang, Owen Pickering will stay in the lineup. Finally, a player poll from The Athletic brought about some unique ideas for rule changes and Hunter and Patrick give their take on what they'd like to see changed, especially when it comes to overtime.
