Penguins look to slow down the Red Wings tonight!

The Penguins will take on the Atlantic Division-leading Detroit Red Wings in the first game of a home and home series. Hunter and Patrick begin the New Year’s Day episode of Locked On Penguins taking a look at the first opponent on the schedule for the Penguins: the Detroit Red Wings (1:40). Detroit has overcome a miserable start to the season and has climbed all the way to the top of the Atlantic and their core players have been a big piece of that ascent. Then, they break down a few line changes (12:30) as well as talk about expectations for newcomer Yegor Chinakhov, who is expected to make his debut. Finally, they give some quick thoughts on the Philip Tomasino trade (21:41) as well as their expectations for the Penguins 2026.
