If you\'re a fan of soccer or golf, Matt and Steve have some highlights there as well.

This week\'s show notes:

Penguins- Pens trade for Erik Gudbranson who is considered one of the worst D Men by the
\\nnumbers he is listed as mor Physical than effective. He is signed through 2021. The Pen also
\\npicked up D Man Chris Wideman from the Panthers to try to sure up the Blue line . Derick
\\nBrassard who Pens traded to Panthers is now with the Avalanche. Former Pen, Haglin who
\\nwas traded to the kings earlier this season is now with the Caps. Biggest one in my eyes is
\\nMats Zuccarello to the Stars. In the last few games, the Pens have had some bad outings,
\\ngetting shelled by the sharks 4-0 and a total give away game in the Stadium Series Out door
\\ngame in Philly last Saturday losing in OT 4-3. Murray is letting in weak goals, the Defense isn\\u2019t
\\nclearing pucks, lots of giveaways in the natural zone, the offense isn\\u2019t keeping the zone and
\\nputting puck on net. Ice conditions last Saturday were shit, we lost Doumalin and Letang on
\\nsame play in first, lots of weird bounces. Blue Jackets tonight. 20 games left in season and
\\nthe Pens are on the outside looking in.
\\nRiverhounds- came to a 1-1 tie with Pitt last Friday and 1-0 win over Bethlehem Steel last
\\nSunday. This Friday March 1st the Akron Zips come to Highmark @3pm and Sunday the 3rd

\\nMatches are Free to attend. The Regular Season starts on the road with the Tampa Bay
\\nRowdies March 16th and the first 4 games of the season are on the road. First home game is
\\nApril 20th.
\\nPGA Tour- Dustin Johnson with a commanding win at the WGC Mexico Open with a -21. Rory
\\nwas 2nd with -16. Was a really chilling course, very tight and narrow with trees lining the
\\nfairways and in just damn tough places. Club selection was key here and Lots of conservative
\\nplay. Tiger the most. Who finished 10th. Next week is the Honda Classic to start the Florida
\\nSwing. Lots of the big names are taking this week off after the Calli swing and Mexico. We
\\naren\\u2019t far out from the Masters folks that has been pushed back to the second weekend in
\\nApril.
\\nNCAA Hoops- Zion Williamson had some Shoe issues and is listed Day To Day for Duke
\\nwhich fell to Number 3 with the loss to UNC last week and a struggle with the Orangemen

\\nMLB News-Rockies 3rd Baseman Nolan Arenado finalizing 8yr extension for 255 million
\\nmaking him highest paid Annual Salary for position player.. Bryce Harper still out there but
\\nreports of him headed to Philly. Cutch probably most honest player in MLB, 3 yr 50 million is
\\nwhy he signed in Philly. , Josh Harrison Signed in Detroit for 1 year 2 million with 1 mill more in
\\nincentives.
