Strong word from reliable reporters in New York that Mike Sullivan is on the cusp of signing a game changing for an NHL coach contract to take over the Rangers.

Good morning to you.

Good Friday morning.

I'm Dan Kovachovich of D.K. Pittsburgh Sports.

This is Daily Shot of Penguins.

It comes your way bright and early every weekday.

If you're into football and or baseball, I also offer daily shots of Steelers and Pirates in the same place

that you found this.

I'm not going to make a habit of tracking every little thing that Sullivan does now that he's

no longer in Pittsburgh.

That's not the way I've handled any beat, even when

there's insanely intensive interest in such a person. For example, Mark Andre Fleury,

whose NHL career formally ended, by the way, last night with the Wilde's loss to the Golden

Knights in Game 6. Even then, I didn't go, you know, chasing Flurry and this and that.

You're in Pittsburgh, you're going to get covered. You're not. And in all likelihood,

the people who do cover hockey in Pittsburgh are going to pay a lot more attention to the people who are in Pittsburgh.

But I bring up Sullivan and this scenario that's unfolding at Madison Square Garden for a real reason.

My friends, the Rangers are going nowhere.

And the only people in the entire hockey world who are unaware of that are the Rangers themselves are the people running MSG are the people who just handed Chris Drury this crazy long contract?

Are the people who think they can make something out of a roster that right before our eyes

fell apart?

Like, totally fell apart this past season.
