The Penguins signed forward Ville Koivunen to an 8-year, $4 million per season contract on Thursday, and the only question is...why? Patrick and Hunter begin the show trying to make sense of the eight-year contract the Penguins signed Koivunen to this week. They discuss why they think the Penguins have such a belief in the young forward, what it means for other younger players who will be due contracts in the next few years, and what, exactly, Koivunen's ceiling is as a potential full-time NHL player. (0:00) Then, the Penguins returning to the playoffs in 2026 was a magical ride, but is it something they can replicate in 2027? They look at how the Penguins can do more of the same this upcoming year. (14:25) Finally, it was announced on Thursday that the Wheeling Nailers will have an NHL affiliate this upcoming season, and they're staying in the Metropolitan Division. (26:05)

It’s another big year for Penguins’ 2022 first-round pick Owen Pickering, but this time, he actually has an opening. Hunter and Patrick begin the Wednesday edition of Locked On Penguins by discussing 2022 first-round pick defenseman Owen Pickering. (1:15) Following some lofty expectations, he has yet to really make his mark in the organization, but with a strong year last year in WBS and a weakened left side, he has a chance to take the leap in 2026-27. Then, with the roster still in flux, but the forwards at the top mostly set, Hunter and Patrick try to predict what the power play units will look like. (11:15) Finally, Penguins’ goaltending prospect Gabriel D’Aigle will remain in the Penguins organization after he was traded to the Florida Everblades. (20:10) They dive into what this means for him and his development.
