The Penguins are going to be without their assistant coach Todd Reirden, who had to have knee surgery on Monday. The former Washington Capitals head coach slipped on ice while trying to shovel his car out and there is currently no scheduled return date. Reirden is in charge of the power play which as of late has been firing on all cylinders scoring 18 power-play goals in the last 18 games for a league-leading 31.6% conversion rate in 2022. Former Charlotte Checkers head coach, Mike Vellucci will take over and newly added staff member Matt Cullen will also help in Reirden’s absence.
