On Apr. 28, the Pittsburgh Penguins parted ways with a head coach who had been leading the team for a decade. And although Mike Sullivan was subsequently hired by the New York Rangers, Pittsburgh will always hold a special place for him.
And he sent the Pittsburgh faithful a heartfelt message on Wednesday.
On a billboard in the Pittsburgh area, Sullivan posted a message to Pittsburgh that read, “Thank you, Pittsburgh. Cup Family is forever.”
To: Pittsburgh

Sullivan was at the helm for Pittsburgh from 2015-2025 and led the team to back-to-back Stanley Cup championships in 2016 and 2017. He left Pittsburgh as the Penguins’ all-time leader in wins. In 835 games with Pittsburgh – including the regular season and the playoffs – Sullivan was 453-293-89 (.543 win percentage). That puts him at 15th all-time for wins with a single franchise.
