Reports: Mike Sullivan to return as Pens coach next season

After a disappointing end to the season, Penguins general manager Jim Rutherford has promised changes will be coming to the team.

However according to reports at the Post-Gazette and Mark Madden, it won’t be involving changing the head coach this off-season.

Rutherford addressed the coaching performance in his press conference yesterday with praise and also dismay.

“We had a good regular season and dealt with some adversity and were able to get through that,” Rutherford said. “You have to look at that and give credit in the right places. I also have to review what’s happened here at the end of the last two seasons.
