Sullivan Announced As Assistant
It took an extra five months, but John Tortorella finally gets his man. Mike Sullivan will join the Rangers as an Assistant Coach after finishing out his contract with the Tampa Bay Lightning.
Sullivan served as an assistant under Tortorella in Tampa, and stayed with the team through last season. When Tortorella was hired last February, the Rangers made an aborted attempt to bring Sullivan over as well, but had to pull back after some miscommunications almost lead to the Rangers being accused of tampering.
