The NHL Season Is About to Start and the Penguins, Kraken and Panthers Each Face Different Challenges

The Pittsburgh Penguins are enthusiastic about the coming season with the addition of Erik Karlsson being a major reason for the new attitude. But is there enough depth behind Sidney Crosby, Kris Letang and Evgeni Malkin to get this team back to the playoffs? Plus are the Penguins ready to go against Connor Bedard in his NHL debut Tuesday? Hunter Hodies of Locked On Penguins discusses this and all things to get us ready for the new season. The Seattle Kraken look to build on last year's surprise playoff run. The team looks deeper than ever but can they get the goaltending and consistency they need to take the next step? Erica L. Ayala of Locked On Kraken joins us to discuss the team's newcomers and what it will take for Matty Beniers and company to have another successful season. Can the Florida Panthers overcome injuries to key players like Aaron Ekblad and Brandon Montour to build on last season's trip to the Stanley Cup Finals? Armando Velez of Locked On Florida Panthers joins us to discuss how the Panthers will overcome these early season injuries and the keys to their season ahead including more stellar play from Sergei Bobrovsky and a deep top nine forward group.
