The Pittsburgh Penguins named Dan Muse as the 23rd head coach in franchise history on Wednesday. He replaces Mike Sullivan, who had been head coach for nine-plus seasons before he and the team agreed to part ways. Muse had been an assistant coach with the New York Rangers, where Sullivan had been hired.

The Pittsburgh Penguins shocked the hockey world by hiring Dan Muse to be their next head coach. Muse served as the New York Rangers assistant coach for the past two seasons, but he remained relatively under the radar as it wasn’t necessarily expected that he would land a head coaching gig.
