It doesn't matter what you preach Mike no one is listenning in that room. This team is not perfect of course but they have been under performing with the same issues for over half a decade… who is the 1 person in charge of them? Whobis the only one left after 3 regiemes? Hell half the team has been changed over 3 times… same issues! Nice giy but better let him go this summer. No point now if your trying to get a higher pick.
Phil Bourque said a good coach needs to be respected, trusted and fears just a little bit. He said this team respects Sullivan and trusts him but there is no fear. no matter what, they know they are getting that next shift over the boards. Even the best coaches messages get stale. For God sakes, scotty bowman has been fired. Its been a great run; its just time.
Sullivan and Dubas seem like an odd pairing. One guy is an old-school, straight-shooter American who played the game a high level for many years; the other is a passive-aggressive media brown-nosing Canadian who never came close to playing pro hockey. I'll take Sullivan.
Iām surprised the penguins held onto this coach this long. If any team needed a coach fired it was this one. They wasted another Crosby year of being elite.
Unfortunately I think the ownership group is not firing Sullivan. Heck i wouldn't care if they made another position in management for him.But I think it's pointless to keep doing the same things over and over and expecting different results… it's insane.

Dubas is the worst gm. He gas no idea what he is doing. Good luck! š
He said "obviously, we werent at our best". Holy understatement.

If this was a playoff team, they would be keeping jake. but they cant let him walk for nothing.
Been a good run Mike, but it is time to go.
Dubas needs to be fired.
how is Sullivan still the coach?

Mike needed to be fired 4 years ago

I love Sully but if weāre starting over a new coach should be part of that rebuild. Letās go Pens.
WHOS RUNNING THAT CLOWN SHOW???
Next coach of the Ottawa Senators
I've seen this show in Toronto. It's not going to end well. It's a managemt fly in, take the money, screw the team and fly away game. Sorry Pen fans.
Has anyone seen how sad he looks at the start š

Penguins are running the organization like the Pirates these days.
