Probably the right move on both counts. The Penguin's rely on Crosby and Malkin far more then is healthy... Shero squandered all the depth in a series of bad moves and depleted to many futures trying to get it back. Bylsma isn't a bad coach IMO but he's certainly no better then just your standard coach. Little risk in letting him go.

I agree, Fortunately for them their core of good players are still fairly young (and headlined by the best player in the world)... they have an opportunity to step back from the brink now.
