Tristan Jarry made his first start in over a month in Game 7. He did alright, unfortunately it wasn’t a game with much room for error. By save percentage, Jarry was worse last night than Louis Domingue, but the eye test tells you Jarry was the better option. Where do the Pens go next with the goalie situation? A familiar name popped up. Marc-Andre Fleury is a free agent. The guys discussed if the Pens should consider the reunion. A caller made a great point back to Matt Murray.
Penguins insider Rob Rossi joined the show. Rob shared his despair with the Penguins series loss to the Rangers in 7 games. He referenced another bad performance by the goaltending – the third year in-a-row it derailed a playoff run. He said the management had a bad off-season coming into this season and mentioned they might not get another. He doesn’t believe Ron Hextall is safe in his spot, but doesn’t necessarily think he’s gone. He thinks the role currently filled by Brian Burke could be open within the next few weeks. Rob said the smart money is on Kris Letang, Evgeni Malkin and Bryan Rust being done with the Penguins – saying Malkin is the only one he could see back. Rob dropped a bombshell – he said Sidney Crosby was cleared to play ahead of Game 6, but was told no by management.
