Massive Rangers opportunity after Mike Sullivan leaves Penguins, becomes  option as coach - Forever Blueshirts

Sullivan and the organization recently agreed to part ways after nearly a decade on the heels of a third straight season of missing the postseason.

During his tenure as the Penguins' head coach, Sullivan won 409 games, becoming the all-time wins leader in team history and won the Stanley Cup twice, in 2016 and in 2017. 

The billboards, which the team says there are several of around the city, say "Thank you, Pittsburgh. Cup family is forever."

Following his departure from the Penguins organization, Sullivan landed a new job with the New York Rangers, where he previously served as an assistant coach. 

The Penguins haven't hired a new head coach to replace Sullivan yet.
