New York Rangers’ coaching hires are good, rumored roles are curious

It took a really long time, 55 days to be exact, for brand new New York Rangers head coach David Quinn to find his future assistant coaches.

We’ve all known that Lindy Ruff and Benoit Allaire would be holdovers but the other candidates were a mystery to everyone in the industry.

On that 55th day, the Rangers announced that Greg Brown and David Oliver would be added to their staff.

Brown was an assistant coach for Boston College over the last 14 years. During his tenure, he worked with the team’s defensemen and ran BC’s penalty kill.
