Losers of eight of their last ten games, the slumping Penguins host Vancouver on Wednesday night at PPG Paints Arena. The Pens are coming off a 6-1 drubbing by Utah on Saturday.
Former Penguin Nick Bonino couldn’t find work in the NHL, so the versatile two-way center has signed with a team in Slovenia that plays in the International Central European Hockey League. Bonino won Stanley Cups as a key member of the Pens in 2016 and 2017. He’s been out of hockey since being released by the New York Rangers last February.

Penguins coach Mike Sullivan might be feeling the pressure after another NHL coach was let go yesterday. The St. Louis Blues fired coach Drew Bannister following a 3-1 loss to the Islanders on Saturday. Bannister took over as interim coach after Craig Berube was fired last season. The Blues are off to a 9-12-and-1 start this season. Jim Montgomery was fired by the Bruins last week.
