Dying Alive

The Penguins have had a Jekyll & Hyde start to the 2019-2020 campaign so we discuss that, everyone getting hurt (again!), our favorite Mike Lange moments, a look around the National Hockey League and of course, your correspondences.

The whole squad is back. Jesse returns from his Olive Garden adventure to talk Penguins, the NHL and more. We discuss training camp, a potential Jack Johnson trade, camp surprises and we again take a stab at the over/unders for this season.

Welcome back to Dying Alive! Hockey is right around the corner and before it gets crazy, Jesse Marshall is on vacation so it's just Pat and Mike breaking down Pens Training Camp, the season ahead and the rest of the NHL and where we stand heading into the 2019-20 season.  As always we take your correspondences to end the episode.

Pour one out for Mike, he wasn't able to make this recording. Thanks to a tremendous Twitter suggestion, Pat and Jesse jump down the rabbit hole of their favorite Penguins memories and moments.

...and we're back!  The Penguins traded Phil Kessel. Why is Jim Rutherford doing what he is doing? Is Tanev worth six years? Are the Penguins the only losers of free agency or do they join a litany of teams that had itchy trigger fingers? After all that, we end on your correspondences!

Jesse is back! For our 31st episode, we talk a possible Phil Kessel trade, the Stanley Cup Final, a little soccer and of course, correspondences take us home.

It's a new kind of episode!! With Jesse on the shelf for this week, we took to Twitter for listeners to give Mike and Pat topics to riff on. We settled with fast food and movies. Pat gives Mike the "Poorly Describe The Plot of a Movie" quiz and then we close out with GoT talk. ****SPOILERS**** 48:30 until the ending is Game of Thrones talk. IF YOU ARE NOT CAUGHT UP TUNE OUT.

After taking a week off, we're back! We discuss the Pens trade rumors, the Stanley Cup Playoffs so far, Premier League and Game of Thrones. ***SPOILERS*** From 32:23-45:39 there is heavy Game of Thrones talk.

The Penguins got swept. GMJR has takes. We dissect what went wrong, what they can do to improve moving forward and how next year could look. We also look around the NHL and take your correspondences. ****GAME OF THRONES SPOILER**** Again, correspondences are Game of Thrones heavy. If you aren’t caught up, please tune out.

The Penguins are down 3-0 in their opening series against the Islanders. How likely is it they come back? What's gone wrong? What do they do moving forward? We talk all that and more in a frustration-laden episode of Dying Alive. *****SPOILER ALERT****** If you watch Game of Thrones and are NOT caught up, please tune out before correspondences.

It's the Penguins vs. the Islanders in round one and we've got your series preview right here. We also go over our over/under predictions from the preseason, talk Stanley Cup Playoffs and as always end on your correspondences.

Dying Alive can officially rent a car and the insurance isn't that high. We talk about how the Islanders are the Penguins' first round opponent, how Evgeni Malkin is a roastmaster and we go full Yinzer in the correspondences. Vine of the Week: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dNavpxx_PPk

This week on Dying Alive, we talk the two weeks that were, narratives that need to die, why Jake Guentzel is so good, some looks around at franchises in disarray and of course, correspondences.

The Penguins are starting to find their stride in the push to the playoffs. Why is that? We discuss. Have Jared McCann and Nick Bjugstad had more of an impact that Derick Brassard? Again, we discuss. Plus some great personal stories and as always, you're correspondences. Vine of the Week: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lwZXb4k4cfw

Due to Mike shooting the Stadium Series, we had a week off, but we're back! We talk Stadium Series, trade deadline, the Pens two weeks since we last recorded, Ottawa, Matt Murray and everything in between. Of course, the show rounds out with your correspondences.
