What exactly will Cullen’s responsibilities be?

Matt Cullen handled a lot of different jobs during his 21-year playing career in the NHL.

Though primarily a center, he was deployed on the wing at times. And in addition to being an accomplished penalty-killer, Cullen received enough power-play time that he piled up 55 man-advantage goals.

And it turns out his job description in his new, player-development role with the Penguins will be every bit as diverse and wide-ranging as the one he had on the ice.

"He's going to do to a little bit of everything," Jim Rutherford said.
