The Rangers reached agreement with coach Alain Vigneault. It’s reportedly five years, $10 million. That’s rich. The former Canucks bench boss earned $1.8 million this past season.
Reaction: Five years is an awfully long time for any coach. Even one as respected as Vigneault. Apparently, that also was the Stars offer. So, the Rangers matched to get their guy. Whether it works remains to be seen. It’ll be a lot calmer on and off the ice.
Coaches have short shelf lives. There’ll be a lot of pressure to perform. I’m not gonna look at the coach if they don’t win. The players wanted this. It’s put up or shut up.
