The final week of the regular season is upon us as the Pittsburgh Penguins failed to gain any ground over the weekend. They're still 1 point back of the Islanders and Panthers as they have the most manageable remaining schedule of the three teams. The show starts with Hunter looking at how the Penguins played on Saturday and how they showed that same desperation and urgency while again also admitting that they shouldn't even be in this situation. He also discusses how Tristan Jarry has finally turned it around a bit when the Penguins have needed him to, plus how the core has been the main reason they're even fighting for a playoff spot. After that, the focus shifts to the Islanders as they have an easy schedule for their final two games but anything is possible. Gil touches on how Ilya Sorokin has carried them since Mathew Barzal went down and how the Islanders have gotten back to basics since Lane Lambert is out of the Barry Trotz coaching tree. Finally, the two get Armando's thoughts on the Panthers as they've been riding high and Armando explains how Alex Lyon continues to impress. He also analyzes how the Panthers have been able to rattle off this winning streak while also getting a bit antsy since their next two games are against two very good teams. All that, plus much more is on this special crossover episode of Locked On Penguins.
