Just a very quick post to call attention to the billboards former Penguins coach Mike Sullivan has placed at various locations around the Pittsburgh area.
The message?
THANK YOU, PITTSBURGH. CUP FAMILY IS FOREVER.
Just an exceptionally classy move. Sully most certainly didn’t owe us anything, especially in the wake of increased criticism, warranted or otherwise, in the years following the back-to-back Stanley Cups.
Such is the way of things in sports and especially for an NHL head coach.
One moment you’re a hero, leading the charge.
A bum the next.
