As an original six NHL hockey team, the New York Rangers have employed 34 head coaches behind their storied bench.
Seven may not seem fair to choose out of this historic bunch, but the foundation these head coaches have laid down stand as a true testament to what it means to lead the Blueshirts every season.
We begin with a fan favorite.
Roger Neilson coached the New York Rangers in 280 regular season games, compiling a record of 141-104-35. He also appeared in 29 playoff games with a record of 13-16-0. In his three and half years as head coach, he was quite successful in the regular season.
