The Pittsburgh Penguins hire a new coach
Pittsburgh Penguins: The Penguins named Dan Muse their 23rd head coach. GM Kyle Dubas:
“During this process, we met with many candidates who we felt would have been a fit as the next head coach of the Penguins, but ultimately, Dan Muse stood out as the best choice. What separated Dan was his ability to develop players, win at all levels where he has been a head coach and his consistent success coaching special teams in the NHL. From his success in developing college and junior players, to his impactful work with veteran players during his time in the NHL, Dan has shown a proven ability to connect with players at all stages of their careers and help them to reach their potential.”

Brock Nelson signs an extension with the Colorado Avalanche
Puck Pedia: The Colorado Avalanche have re-signed 33-year-old forward Brock Nelson to a three-year extension with a $7.5 million salary cap hit.
2025-26: $9 million salary and a $500,000 signing bonus
2026-27: $7.3 million salary
2027-28: $5.7 million salary
Nelson will have a full no-trade clause for the first two years and a 15-team no-trade clause in the last year of the deal.
Evan Rawal: “The price was always going to be a little uncomfortable, but the Avs didn’t really have any other options beyond “pray Bennett hits free agency and signs with you.” Weak FA class and limited trade assets. Now it’ll be interesting to see what moves are made to get under the cap.”
Andrew Gross: Was told back in March that the New York Islanders last and best offer to Nelson was for three years at $7.5 million per.
$7.5M is a fair price for 2024-25 Brock Nelson, but starts looking a little steep for 2025-26 Brock Nelson and beyond. Needs to age better than expected for this deal to work. pic.twitter.com/gH6VHFU87k
