Whatever is next for Dubas will be bright. If he decides to return to the NHL, he'll be able to turn a team around and achieve success.
In fact, he may get the opportunity sooner than later, as a team has shown interest in him.
Chris Johnston reported that the Pittsburgh Penguins have approached Kyle Dubas to fill their GM position.
Ever since he met with Sidney Crosby in the last few days, rumors have been multiplying.
The Penguins didn't qualify for the playoffs last year, a first since 2006. Rebuilding may not be the solution there, but Dubas clearly has what it takes to get the organization back on the winning track.
