The Penguins' search for a new head of the hockey operations department ended on Thursday with the hiring of Kyle Dubas as the team's president of hockey operations.
There's still work to be done this summer, though.
The Penguins are still without a general manager and could still potentially hire an assistant general manager this offseason as well. Dubas said in his introductory press conference on Thursday that he's expecting to handle the general manager duties himself until at least July.
Last week the Penguins fired three other members of the hockey operations staff in Kerry Huffman (director of professional scouting), Teena Murray (senior vice president of integrated performance) and Alec Schall (director of hockey operations), creating some additional vacancies that could also be filled this summer.
