Pittsburgh Penguins Fans Wanted – Join FanSided Today
Pens Labyrinth has steadily grown as FanSided’s home for Pittsburgh Penguins coverage dating back to when the site was first launched. The Penguins have been a steady constant in the NHL, and so too has the staff here at PL. The constant has always been our goal here on site: to give you folks, our readers, the very best Penguins discussion that we possibly can.
The 2015-2016 season is well underway, and for many – the Penguins need help. Can they right the ship in time to make a push for the playoffs? What moves are necessary to ensure continued success? Is this the beginning of the end for Sidney Crosby and company? You – the Pittsburgh Penguins fan have the answers, and we want you to join our team.
Consider yourself a passionate fan? Read us or other Penguins sites with regularity and ever wonder if you should write about the team too? Maybe you’re just stumbling across us for the first time and you like what you see. Maybe your family and friends have told you to start writing about the team. We are looking to add to our staff here on site and this could be your chance to grab a stick and join the team. Don’t just sleep in your Penguins gear, live it every day!
Pens Labyrinth is currently looking to fill multiple roles on site, from contributors to staff writers to paid editors – we have a spot for the average fan, or the rabid puck eater, so whatever category you fall into – we have a spot for you.
Expectations
We like to let our staff write about the aspects of the team they are most passionate about. There’s room for those interested in covering the minor leagues. Maybe you’re more of a transaction junkie and you want to talk about the impact a new signing or trade could have. Or even just chipping in on series previews, roundtable discussions on staff about how the team should approach the offseason or whether a big move is needed to get them back on top, or helping with a number of other potential story ideas there could be a place for you here on the team.

Contributors are asked to contribute 1-2 posts per week. We’ll always welcome more frequent contributions than that, but we won’t require it.
Our site experts, well they run the site. They manage the staff, ensure the site is updated daily with fresh, relevant content for our readers; and they manage the social media accounts. Site experts who meet the minimum criteria are rewarded with revenue sharing based compensation.
We know that for most this is mostly a hobby and something you do for the love of it. That’s why we do it too, as most of us have families, full-time careers, and/or school to balance into our lives as well (there’s room for things besides hockey, right?). This is an opportunity to join a staff of writers here who are just simply passionate about the Pittsburgh Penguins and want to continue to reach the rest of this great fan base.
Want to join us?
Applying is very easy. Head on over and complete an application. It’ll give you a chance to share some insight into your background (prior online writing experience is not necessary but always encouraged) and let us know why you’d be a fit on site, so give it your best. We’ll be in touch from there.
If you have any questions about the roles, please feel free to email kyle.franzoni@fansided.com or timothy.redinger@fansided.com with any questions.
