The Penguins should be closing in on naming their next coach within the next few days and a few common names have been bandied about by national level reporters.
As the Penguins go through their final rounds of HC interviews this week, DJ Smith & Mitch Love remain among the frontrunners in Pittsburgh. Pens are meeting with Smith tomorrow or Friday.
