The most important name in the Pittsburgh Penguins’ organization that the average fan probably doesn’t know - or has ever maybe even heard about - is David Beeston.
Such is life and the challenge of the Penguins being brought into the whopping $9 billion portfolio of the Fenway Sports Group. The name alone conjures up the obvious connection to the group’s ownership of the Boston Red Sox and iconic Fenway Park, but leaves little personal touch for their newest $900 million acquisition just over a year ago in the form of the Pittsburgh hockey club.
Most know of John Henry, FSG’s founder and principal owner, and perhaps even the Chariman, Tom Warner, who has made various appearances and statements.
