Rangers announce Lindy Ruff, David Oliver, Greg Brown as assistants

Veteran Lindy Ruff and newcomers David Oliver and Greg Brown were announced on Tuesday as the members of the coaching staff for new Rangers head coach David Quinn.

Ruff, 58, is the lone holdover from prior coach Alain Vigneault’s staff. He had been a head coach for 19 seasons before joining Vigneault’s staff last summer to handle the team’s defense, and he was the only assistant not let go when Vigneault was fired at the end of the season.

Brown, 50, was the associate head coach at Boston College for the past five seasons and had been on the Boston College coaching staff for the past 14 seasons.
