The Pittsburgh Penguins put a microphone on second-year star Jake Guentzel, the former Hill-Murray High School standout, for Game 6 of the Stanley Cup series against Philadelphia on Sunday.

They scored. Big time.

Guentzel scored four goals as Pittsburgh eliminated the Flyers.

And he was pretty colorful in doing so, both in the language the team shared with fans on social media and in some of what needed to be left to the imagination.

Here's the account from the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.

And for those of you who want to go straight to the video, take two minutes and listen. The Penguins did enough bleepin' that you don't need to wear headphones.
