After a mailbag episode this past Thursday, the Skating Penguin Network crew is back again for another question go-around in the normal Tuesday time slot.

If one chain restaurant could be added to your area, what would it be? We also talk about each host’s favorite non-Penguins-related hobbies All these topics and more are discussed on this week’s show! *** Follow the Skating Penguin Network on X/Twitter, @PenguinsFFSN, to stay up-to-date with our latest podcast episodes, new content, and more.

After a monster trade that brought Erik Karlsson to the Pittsburgh Penguins, we have a jam-packed mailbag edition of the Penscast. This week, Robbie, Snail, and Garrett take questions on several different topics, including: What the team might do personnel-wise now that Jake Guentzel will be out until at least the end of October Crazy hockey player superstitions Whether or not it’s the right move for Kyle Dubas to handle GM duties What player would you rather have between Karlsson or Jakob Chychrun How this Karlsson trade may directly impact the performance of Evgeni Malkin All these topics and more are discussed on this week’s show! *** Follow the Skating Penguin Network on Twitter, @PenguinsFFSN, to stay up-to-date with our latest podcast episodes, new content, and more.

It’s been 24 hours (at the time of writing this), and ERIK KARLSSON IS A PITTSBURGH PENGUIN. The player Kyle Dubas sought since departing Toronto and arriving in Pittsburgh is finally on his roster, and in one fell swoop, Dubas acquired the reigning Norris Trophy winner while simultaneously doing away with just about every Ron Hextall-era mistake. Garrett and Snail turn on the microphones and provide their reaction to this blockbuster deal. Where will Karlsson be slotted? Will he quarterback the power play? Can Karlsson improve the Pittsburgh Penguins in Jake Guentzel’s absence? How does the trade affect Kris Letang and his ice time? All these questions and more are discussed on this week’s show! *** Follow the Skating Penguin Network on Twitter, @PenguinsFFSN, to stay up-to-date with our latest podcast episodes, new content, and more.

We are into August now, and all seems quiet on the western (Pennsylvania) front. While we patiently wait to see what, if anything, Kyle Dubas and co. have up their sleeves, the Penscast Mailbag is back this week to beat the heat and the dog days of the off-season. This week, the three hosts take 11 questions.  What trade do you believe was the best in Pittsburgh Penguins' history? Which player has more upside: P.O Joseph or Ty Smith?  Would you like to see the Penguins go back to their original blue sweaters? Is Drew O’Connor the hero the team needs, giving the team a second chance to buy out Mikael Granlund? Our zany food discussions continue this week. What’s on your Mount Rushmore of ice cream flavors? All these topics and more are discussed on this week’s show! *** Follow the Skating Penguin Network on Twitter, @PenguinsFFSN, to stay up-to-date with our latest podcast episodes, new content, and more.

After a week off last week, Garrett, Robbie, and Snail return to your podcasting platforms with another mailbag edition of the Penscast. This week, the three hosts take 11 questions. What are some of the top reasons to visit Pittsburgh outside of the Pittsburgh Penguins? Which five teams across the NHL would be on your no-trade list? How would you spend your day with the Stanley Cup? We delve into some baseball and talk about the Pittsburgh Pirates drafting pitcher Paul Skenes as the No. 1 overall pick in the 2023 MLB Draft. And all three hosts have a spirited, hilarious, perhaps stomach-churning discussion on the benefits and uses of ketchup!

A few weeks ago, I typed on this website that we had broken a mailbag record with the number of questions we had, with 28 queries. Fast forward to now, and that record has been eclipsed yet again with 31 tweets sent to the Skating Penguin Network Twitter account. Clocking in at just under 90 minutes, it’s one of the longest recordings we have ever done. But that’s not all the history we’re making. For the first time, we have recruited a new voice to the Skating Penguin Network. Frequent mailbag contributor, Snail, has come aboard the crew and will be providing his voice and opinions to all sorts of future content alongside Robbie and Garrett. This week, the hosts are asked about: Our thoughts on the Pittsburgh Penguins’ 2023 draft class The early days of free agency and how effective Kyle Dubas’ first moves may be The likelihood of an Erik Karlsson trade to Pittsburgh Whether or not it was the right decision to re-sign Tristan Jarry to a long-term contract The massive menu at the Cheesecake Factory All these topics and more are discussed on this week’s show! *** Follow the Skating Penguin Network on Twitter, @PenguinsFFSN, to stay up-to-date with our latest podcast episodes, new content, and more.
