Source: Cullen meets with upper management

Matt Cullen was meeting with the top of the Penguins' management structure Sunday night in Sewickley, Pa., a source told DKPittsburghSports.com, possibly toward taking a post-playing position within the organization.

Others known to be at the meeting were David Morehouse, Jim Rutherford and Bill Guerin, the highest three figures in the franchise's hierarchy shy of owners Mario Lemieux and Ron Burkle. That level of representation almost certainly wouldn't be needed if Cullen were simply informing the team of his retirement as a player -- something he hasn't done yet -- and Guerin's inclusion suggests a role in player procurement or development.
