It's another edition of Fan Take Friday, and we dive into a question that has us wondering...should the Penguins have started rebuilding earlier? Patrick and Hunter begin this all Fan Take Friday edition of Locked On Penguins with a simple question: Should the Penguins have started this rebuild-retool after losing to the Canadiens in the 2020 Stanley Cup Playoffs? They discuss if it would have made sense, who they could've moved, who they could've kept, and if they trusted former GM Jim Rutherford to execute the plan. Then, they take more of your questions and takes about where some of the young players fit in, if this team will be better in 2025-26, and which of the big three will remain on the Penguins the longest.
