(WPXI) – Another major part of the Pittsburgh Penguins won’t be available for Thursday’s game against the Philadelphia Flyers: head coach Mike Sullivan. The Penguins coach won’t be on the bench due to COVID-19 protocols. Assistant coach Todd Reirden will assume coaching duties. Sullivan is just the latest domino to fall for the team due to the virus. The team will be without Sidney Crosby, Brian Dumoulin, Kris Letang, Chad Ruhwedel and Marcus Pettersson. Crosby had only played one game so far this season after returning from injury.
