5 potential Rangers coaching candidates
Briefly

The New York Rangers are considering potential candidates for the head coach position following a disappointing season. Mike Sullivan, currently with the Pittsburgh Penguins, is a strong contender if he becomes available. John Tortorella, recently fired, offers a tough coaching style that could benefit the Rangers. Rick Tocchet's position with the Vancouver Canucks is uncertain, and he is also a potential candidate. The possibility of hiring a rookie coach like Michael Peca exists but is less likely. Drury is looking for a firm hand to guide the team forward.
If Pittsburgh’s Mike Sullivan becomes available, Rangers GM Chris Drury would be interested in bringing back the former Rangers assistant as his head coach.
John Tortorella, fired by the Flyers, is available and known for his tough coaching style that could shake up a complacent Rangers roster.
The Rangers might explore options for head coach, including Rick Tocchet if he becomes available, showing interest in other top NHL coaches.
Michael Peca, although unlikely to be a rookie hire, will get the chance to interview for the head coaching position with the Rangers.
