Head coach Todd Richards will leave the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins to join the NHL's San Jose Sharks as an assistant coach, sources tell The Citizens' Voice.
Richards and former Norfolk Admirals coach Trent Yawney will assist new San Jose head coach Todd McLellan, who was hired by the Sharks last month.
Richards, 41, went 98-49-5-8 in two seasons behind the Penguins bench, making the playoffs twice and advancing to the Calder Cup finals last month. Assistant coach Dan Bylsma is the overwhelming favorite to succeed him.
