Penguins hire Tony Granato as assistant coach

[pghbuccos]

the Penguins announced today that they have hire former Colorado Av's head coach Tony Granato as an assistant coach to Dan Bylsma. I think this is a great addition to the coaching staff. Granato is an excellent coach who wasn't given a fair chance in Colorado his second time around and he brings a lot of experience to the Pen's bench.

Awful signing. Granato was the worst head coach in the NHL last season. He's the reason why the PP was so bad. Lost the room twenty games into his first stint, and never gained it back. Got demoted, replaced by the only coach rivaling him for the worst in the league, then when he was re-promoted when Q was fired, he never gained back the room. He's simply awful.
