[ImporterExporter]

Hooooooray Jesus!

 

[Shrimper]

Mike Sullivan new coach.

 

[Wes C Addle]

Come on down Sully....lets see if you can fix this mess.

 

[harmonica]

Finally.

 

[Snippit]

Congratulations Penguins fans.

 

[Speaking Moistly]

Bye!


You don't **** with someone as impulsive as JR and Johnston tried it.

 

[cheesedanish87]

Tocchet keep his job, because hes friends with the owner.

I'm so happy rn

 

[PensFreak]

Good. I don't know that much about Mike Sullivan though, what is he generally about in terms of systems/philospohy?

 

[GreatjonUmber]

So Rick Tocchet is still on board?

 

[Shockmaster]

About damn time.

Excited to see what Sullivan can do. It'll also be interesting to see if Tocchet shows any improvement. The PP had been a little better lately.

 

[Retrocity]

Trying to hide it behind all that Charlie Morton news.

Can't say I'm surprised, I did not expect it until closer to January though.

 

[Cherpak]

Don't let the door hit ya where the good lord split ya.

 

[Callista Rhian]

YES!!!! FINALLY!

Hope the new coaching regime is better for Sid and G and that Spring gets more ice time!! (And that Scuderi is permanently healthy-scratched)

 

[mpp9]

Pretty bold. Especially after taking the league's best team right now to a shootout.

 

[SEALBound]

Can someone PLEASE post that confused MJ picture?

It's not that I think MJ wasn't a decent coach because I truly think he's a very smart and capable man but he just wasn't right for this team.

We are not a defensively structured team.

Watch Sprong go to 20min/game now out a shear fear from Sullivan.

People that watch WBS frequently, what can we expect from Sullivan>

 

[The GM]

So Rick Tocchet is still on board?

It's because they knew the PP was not the problem.

 

[Waffle Fries]

A few things:

Is Sullivan interim or is the gig his? Can someone give me a rundown of his system?

I also feel like this decision was already made before the last couple games. They played well against Colorado and the Kings.
