Penguins part ways with Sullivan

By From Mirror, AP reports 1 min read

PITTSBURGH -- Mike Sullivan's nearly decade-long tenure running the Pittsburgh Penguins is over.

The team announced Monday that it was parting ways with the two-time Stanley Cup-winning coach just over a week after the Penguins missed out on the playoffs for a third straight season.

Sullivan, whose 409 wins with Pittsburgh are a franchise record, led the Penguins to back-to-back championships in 2016 and 2017 and had two more years left on the contract extension he signed in 2022. The 57-year-old had said recently that he wanted to remain with the club as it tries to retool around future Hall of Famer Sidney Crosby.
