NHL: Pens Rumors: Guerin set to join scouting department; Comrie/Kings chatter

The Latest Penguins Rumblings

There is some thought that former Penguin Billy Guerin could still help the Penguins on the ice, most notably on the power play as the Penguins lack a right handed shot down low.

Guerin though will "likely" be making his mark with the Penguins, off the ice.

Word out of Guerin's inner circle is that Guerin will officially announce his retirement following the Thanksgiving holiday, probably in early December, and most likely join the Penguins scouting staff in January of 2011.

Guerin joining the Penguins hockey operations staff has been in the works for about three weeks now, and Guerin is "strongly" leaning towards making the move to a hockey operations role and being apart of the Penguins scouting staff.

Guerin's scouting base will be in the New York area I'm told and he will work very closely with Tom Fitzgerald.
