The “interim” is gone.

Interim Head Coach Dan Bylsma is now Head Coach Dan Bylsma.

"Dan has done such an impressive job with our team, both on and off the ice, that we didn’t see the need to wait any longer to announce our decision," said Ray Shero, the Penguins’ executive vice president and general manager. "He is the man we want to lead the Pittsburgh Penguins as our head coach."

"I want to thank Ray Shero and our ownership for giving me this tremendous opportunity to be the head coach of the Pittsburgh Penguins," Bylsma said. "I’m humbled. I’m excited. And I look forward to continuing to lead our hockey team."

Bylsma has agreed to a multi-year deal with the team. Terms have not been released.
