DeBartolo reshapes Penguins front office in Pittsburgh
Edward J. DeBartolo backs a plan to keep the Pittsburgh Penguins afloat by reshuffling the front office. Vincent Bartimo, named chairman, cites a reported season cash loss of over 2 million dollars and says DeBartolo’s involvement preserves the team’s future amid debts tied to the mall project atop a slag dump. Paul Martha will oversee daily operations as the club fights to reach the playoffs after a 72 win over Minnesota before 7 300 fans.
