Mike Sullivan and the New York Rangers are in advanced talks for him to become their next head coach. The contract is expected to be one of the richest for a head coach in NHL history.
Sullivan has been head coach of the Pittsburgh Penguins for 10 seasons. Sullivan left the post just a few days ago after the Penguins missed the playoffs for the third straight season.
The Rangers fired Peter Laviolette this offseason after they failed to make the playoffs for the first time since 2021.
