The Boston Bruins have once again missed out on another head coach and now it changes things for the organization.
A recent announcement revealed that the Pittsburgh Penguins have officially found their next head coach in Dan Muse.
Today the organization announced that Muse is taking over the head coaching position after Mike Sullivan was fired in April. It comes as a shock as a lot of rumours pointed the Penguins to Mitch Love, but that's why rumours are rumours and not facts.
Welcome to Pittsburgh, Dan Muse!
After announcing the hiring, General Manager Kyle Dubas had this to say about Dan Muse being the teams next head coach:
Penguins GM Kyle Dubas on hiring Dan Muse as Head Coach: «During this process, we met with many candidates who we felt would have been a fit as the next head coach of the Penguins, but ultimately, Dan Muse stood out as the best choice. What separated Dan was his ability to develop players, win at all levels where he has been a head coach and his consistent success coaching special teams in the NHL. From his success in developing college and junior players, to his impactful work with veteran players during his time in the NHL, Dan has shown a proven ability to connect with players at all stages of their careers and help them to reach their potential.»
Bruins Last Team Without A Coach
With this hiring, the Boston Bruins are officially the last team without a head coach.
Every other team that was searching for a head coach during the off-season has officially found theirs including the New York Rangers, Philadelphia Flyers, Chicago Blackhawks, Seattle Kraken, and now the Pittsburgh Penguins.
There are plenty of options for the Boston Bruins, with Marco Sturm reportedly the favourite to land the job, but it will be interesting to see who actually gets it.
