Pittsburgh Penguins hire new head coach to replace Mike Sullivan, 23rd in history
PITTSBURGH, Pa. (WTAJ) — The Pittsburgh Penguins have named Dan Muse as the 23rd head coach in franchise history, aiming to turn the page with a leader known for developing talent and leading elite special teams in the NHL. Muse, 42, brings two decades of coaching experience to Pittsburgh, including five seasons as an NHL assistant with the New York Rangers and Nashville Predators. During his tenure, his teams won three division titles and earned two President's Trophies. Team officials cited Muse's success in player development and his ability to drive strong special teams performance as major factors in the hire. While in Nashville (2017-19), his penalty kill ranked fourth league-wide. He matched that consistency in New York from 2023 to 2025, helping the Rangers reach the NHL's top-tier in penalty kill success and net percentage. Muse has coached at nearly every level, winning championships in the NCAA, USHL, and with the U.S. National Team. He led Yale to a national title in 2013 and captured the USHL's Clark Cup with the Chicago Steel in 2017. He later headed USA Hockey's U18 program, guiding the team to gold at the 2023 World Championship. Originally from Canton, Massachusetts, Muse played four years at Stonehill College before transitioning to coaching. He and his wife, Maureen, have four children. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
