There are a couple of things that can help give the Pittsburgh Penguins a much-needed boost in the second half of the 2022-23 season. A significant trade to help fix an area of weakness (like a third-line center) is at the top of the list, and paying greater attention to detail defensively is probably right behind it.
But they also need some players already on the roster to have a big second half. So let’s look at a couple that could help make-or-break which direction the season goes.
Tristan Jarry
It is not an exaggeration to say that there is not a more important player on the roster right now than Jarry.
