Frozen Frenzy Reaction: Ovechkin Scoring Drought, Pens Hot Start, Hellebuyck’s Workload, TOR Struggles

from NHL @TheRink · host National Hockey League

Dan and Shawn react to Tuesday night’s Frozen Frenzy, including Dan’s behind-the-scenes experience observing ESPN’s production of the event. The guys follow with reaction to Alex Ovechkin’s slow start to the season as he remains stuck on 899 career goals and Pittsburgh’s hot start to the season, and whether or not the Penguins can sustain their early success while led by aging stars Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin. The duo then debates the sustainability of Connor Hellebuyck’s workload in Winnipeg and whether the Maple Leafs can resurrect early struggles or if Toronto’s playoff chances are in doubt.
