Has Mike Sullivan Been Fired Yet?

[Mr. T]

Lol we have the worst owners.

Remember when everyone said that FSG was going to be ruthless and not accept failure?

You idiots.

Hey we were having our LinkedIn-brain phase at the time.

I don't know if anyone has seen the John Woo masterpiece, Broken Arrow.

There's a scene where Howie Long has to pretend he's dying, and the moaning noise he makes as he "dies" is basically how I feel every time I watch a game this year.

Love the soundtrack for that movie.

Cancer of the brain is the worst, I’m sorry.

You're just jealous of my ability to bring up AI in any given work situation.

Dunno about Red Sox but Liverpool FC were consistently one of the top teams in the Champions League and the Premier League under Klopp (their coach until this season), so him not being fired by FSG says next to nothing about FSG's tendency to fire or not fire underperforming coaches.

Yeah, I think Alex Cora of the Red Sox is probably a better comparison. Klopp was never under fire as Liverpool manager. Thought Liverpool churned through managers pretty routinely prior to Klopp under FSG.

Cora won a World Series in his first year as manager, missed the playoffs the next year, was suspended for a year, lost in the league championship series his third year, and has had three consecutive .500 or worse seasons since.

Most managers would have been fired. He signed a three-year extension this summer.

Are there any more Mike Sullivans in the Pittsburgh area? - because, as we all know, if you fire one you have to find another.

Yes. He works for the Steelers.

 

[Buddy Bizarre]

Yes. He works for the Steelers.

He's probably a better choice for the Penguins than the original Mike Sullivan

 

[BigEezyE22]

He's gonna have to molest half the roster to get fired.

Also depends on which half.

 

[HandshakeLine]

Also depends on which half.

Generally the half with genitals.

 

[MetalheadPenguinsFan]

Joke franchise. We're seriously looking at the possibility of 5 first round losses followed by 5 playoff misses

‘Yotes 3.0 after Crosby/Geno are gone.

Frankly it’d serve them right for blindly sticking by Sullivan for 10+ years

 

[Tasty Biscuits]

Scott Gomez will score before Sullivan gets fired.

I like to think the Pens have been trolling the Rangers by keeping Sullivan for so long. I mean sure we're trolling ourselves too, but the Rangers have been waiting around to hire Sullivan for years now. I bet they'd fire Lavy tomorrow and hire Sully if Sully were available.

You're gonna have to name names, because when it comes to Sullivan, nobody in that org has any balls.

This is like shooting yourself in the dick to get back at your ex.

1st place in the OHL,

 

[BusinessGoose]

More info needed

 

[PensFutures]

Everything I am seeing on twitter is their former coach left unexpectedly left for the AHL, and O'Rourke was the assistant so they just let him take over. They want to play a different style heading into the playoffs so he was let go. He is being replaced by Ryan Malone's cousin Brad, who just retired from playing last year.

 

[PensFutures]

My last post made me wonder, if everyone starts referring to him as Charlie McAvoy's father in law, do you think Sully would rage quit?

HC the Guy who was in charge of Rick Tocchet

 

[Buddy Bizarre]

Sullivan's Crossing.

Maybe they can remake this into a hockey drama series about a coach who just loves his pet players.

 

[Duffy13]

I am so ready to turn on Dubas for this bullshit dragging on so long, f***ing nerd

When a 12 year old can do your job better than you.

Alex Letang could probably craft a better defensive system and better lineup….
