Big news has hit the wires just a few hours before the New York Rangers 7:30 p.m. game against the Philadelphia Flyers. Rangers head coach David Quinn and Rangers assistant coaches Jacques Martin, David Oliver, and Greg Brown are all unavailable for tonight’s game due to the league’s COVID-19 protocols and health and safety guidelines.
That’s the entirety of the coaching staff that works behind the bench during games.
The Rangers will turn to the coaching staff of the team’s AHL affiliate, the Hartford Wolf Pack, and Wolf Pack general manager Chris Drury to coach the team tonight.
