What in the HECK was that? Hunter starts the show off by being completely stunned at what happened on Tuesday night and why everyone failed to show up, outside of 87 & 71. He goes into how the Penguins played their latest hits yet again in a loss to the Chicago Blackhawks. He slams them for still not being able to finish any of their chances as this has been a theme all season while also discussing why Tristan Jarry can't be this team's starting goaltender for next season. He also looks at how there was no depth scoring yet again as that has plagued them ever since Ron Hextall took over as the general manager. He also sends a message to fans that think that this is "because they brought the band together" as those people can't see the forest for the trees. After that, Hunter analyzes why it's time to fire Hextall as soon as this miserable season comes to an end and how the next GM that comes in is going to have a tough time with the mess that he has left behind. He then brings up Mike Sullivan and questions whether he can survive this, even though he just signed an extension last year (and it hasn't even kicked in yet). Finally, he has the final game preview for the season as the Penguins will take on the Blue Jackets on Thursday night. Will it even matter? All that, plus much more is on this episode of Locked On Penguins.
