How Well Do Penguins Players Know Pittsburghese?

"Gumband". "Buggy". "Slippy". "Jumbo".
All these words and many, many more have unique meanings in the Pittsburgh dialect. But how many players could serve as translators to help the outside world understand Pittsburghers? Spoiler: not many.

With Gumband, Kahun was actually right. He just didn't know the english word for "Gummiband" was rubberband.

He'd been in Pittsburgh for a decade and a half by then, so he had some time to catch a few terms here and there lol. Speaking of, I feel fortunate that so many Pens/Steelers stars have been career-longers.
