NEW YORK -- Grant Potulny is leaving Northern Michigan to become the coach of the New York Rangers' American Hockey League affiliate in Hartford, Connecticut.
Rangers president and general manager Chris Drury announced the hiring of the 44-year-old Potulny on Thursday.
Kris Knoblauch started last season as the coach of the Wolf Pack, but he left in early November to take over as the Edmonton Oilers coach after Jay Woodcroft was fired. Knoblauch led the Oilers to Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Final before losing 2-1 to the Florida Panthers on Monday night.
