The New York Rangers have appointed Mike Sullivan as their new head coach after he parted ways with the Pittsburgh Penguins. General Manager Chris Drury highlighted Sullivan's impressive coaching record in the NHL and internationally, emphasizing his championship experience and ability to lead the team. Sullivan replaces Peter Laviolette, who was fired after the Rangers missed the playoffs. Having previously worked as a Rangers assistant, Sullivan's familiarity with the organization, as well as his history with Drury and Tortorella, positions him well to revitalize the Rangers as immediate contenders.
"Mike Sullivan has established himself as one of the premier head coaches in the NHL. Mike brings a championship-level presence behind the bench."
"I would like to welcome Mike back to the Rangers organization. His track record and success in the NHL and internationally speaks for itself."
