Why Penguins coach Mike Sullivan might stick with Game 1 lineup
In Friday’s Sided.co podcast, Jonathan Bombulie, the Trib’s Penguins beat writer, joins me from Long Island to preview Game 2 of the Penguins-Islanders series.

LISTEN: Why Sullivan might stick with Game 1 lineup
Plus we dive into why Penguins fans shouldn’t panic over the Game 1 result, how things could’ve been different if they had started better and whether Robin Lehner can replicate his Game 1 performance.
