Here's the latest on the Pierre McGuire applying for the Pittsburgh Penguins general manager position. Cross your fingers folks.

TSN.ca Staff -- The Pittsburgh Penguins may be looking into their past for potential general manager candidates.

According to Jim Matheson of the Edmonton Journal, sources say former Penguins assistant coach and current TV analyst Pierre McGuire has had two interviews with the team.

The Penguins fired Ray Shero last month after the team gave up a 3-1 series lead before being eliminated by the New York Rangers in the second round of the Stanley Cup playoffs.

McGuire was part of Scotty Bowman's coaching staff when the Penguins won the Stanley Cup in 1992.

Bruins 2012-13 National television schedule

s/t to my friends at the Bruins Daily - the NHL has released their television schedule even though some or all of schedule could be wiped out due to the work stoppage – in fact its’ a bit disingenuous for them to release a schedule when the two sides are so far apart. The good news is that the NHL owners and the NHLPA are set to resume talks tomorrow for a time to be determined. It's thought that the players are going to make their second proposal.

Here is the Boston Bruins Games Broadcast schedule on NBC Sports Network (all times Eastern):

Nov. 23 vs. Rangers (NBC)
Nov. 27 vs. New Jersey (NBCSN, NESN locally)
Dec. 10 at Detroit (NBCSN, NESN locally)
Jan. 9 at Buffalo (NBCSN)
Jan. 13 at Rangers (NBCSN)
Jan. 29 vs. St. Louis (NBCSN)
Feb. 4 at Colorado (NBCSN)
