RESURGENCE: Pittsburgh Penguins’ RECLAMATION Projects PAY OFF, Can They Make It BACK-TO-BACK?

Author: Locked On Podcast Network September 2, 2026 Duration: 30:58
Ottawa Senators shake up their locker room by trading Brady Tkachuk to the Florida Panthers. Has Ottawa finally found addition by subtraction? Seth Toupal and JD Young debate whether William Eklund’s arrival and an energized core led by Tim Stützle and Drake Batherson can push the Sens past playoff disappointments in the brutal Atlantic Division. Is this the move that unlocks the Senators’ potential, or will goaltending remain their Achilles’ heel? The conversation also breaks down the Pittsburgh Penguins' playoff hopes as Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin, and Erik Karlsson enter another pivotal season. Can the Penguins’ aging stars and retooled roster defy expectations again? Finally, the Boston Bruins’ strange but effective roster construction takes center stage—is this “island of misfit toys” built for another 100-point season, or are regression and a possible sell-off looming? Don’t miss this candid look at three of the NHL’s most intriguing storylines.
