HOUR 1 - 3 best Penguins moves, ALL ACCESS, Jeff Hathhorn

from The PM Team w/Poni & Mueller

What are the best moves made by the Penguins over the course of the season? Poni thinks there are a definitive 3 that greatly impacted the season. Signing Anthony Mantha to a 1-year flier deal in a season in which he has scored 30 goals. His next one was the Egor Chinakhov trade that immediately paid off. The final one was the Tristan Jarry trade that ridded the Penguins of an awful contract and situation. The talk turned to the draft and how that could impact a potential Penguins playoff series at the same time. ALL ACCESS w/ Aditi – Is Ty Simpson bound for Pittsburgh? Aditi told the guys that Ben Roethlisberger believes Simpson to the Steelers would get booed by the fans. Aditi said she is ‘all in’ on the Steelers seeing what they have in Will Howard. Are people knocking Simpson because of himself or because of Dan Orlovsky? She doesn’t think the Steelers should be locked in on Simpson as we sit about 3 weeks away from the draft. Aditi feels like the Steelers are still favoring WR at 21st overall, but they will be considering best player available, no matter the position. The Steelers have a dozen picks this year, but will they use all of them? Aditi dove into the QB issues that have plagued the Steelers for 5 years now. 93.7 The Fan Sports Director Jeff Hathhorn joined the show. Jeff, the ultimate hustler of covering sports, said he would choose covering the NFL Draft in Pittsburgh over a Penguins first round playoff game. Jeff said, according to the NHL, they are not adjusting their playoff schedule even if it means the Penguins have a home playoff game the same night of the draft. The guys got Jeff’s reaction to the Penguins dominating their back-to-back against the Islanders and Red Wings. Is this team a lock to make the playoffs? The guys asked Jeff about the schedule quirk that has them facing the Panthers in home games on consecutive days over the weekend. Should Dan Muse get more consideration for the Coach of the Year award?
