Per Mollie Walker, the NY Rangers have hired a new skating and skills coach. Christian Hmura replaces Mark Ciaccio, who appears to have been demoted to prospect development coach (more on that in a second). This was a much needed move as Ciaccio was more of a problem than people realized. Hmura will be around the reach regularly, something we didn’t really see with Ciaccio.
#NYR have hired Christian Hmura as a skills and performance development coach, per source. He will be on the coaching staff and around the team regularly.
