PITTSBURGH -- Since Michel Therrien was replaced as head coach of the Pittsburgh Penguins in mid-February, the team has caught fire, heating up the Igloo and the entire NHL.
Relative unknown Dan Bylsma, the former coach of the Pens' AHL affiliate Wilkes-Barre Scranton, succeeded Therrien and has led the team to a 13-2-3 record since taking over as interim head coach.
As of Thursday, the team had risen to the No. 6 seed in the Eastern Conference after barely staying in playoff contention.
WTAE Channel 4 Action News Anchor Sally Wiggin talked to the man formerly known as "Disco Dan" about how the team's climb back into contention.
