As the New York Rangers embark on a hunt for a new coach, the smart money is on Gerard Gallant. It was revealed that Gallant interviewed for the job last week with Chris Drury and the priority placed on getting that interview done could be revealing.

Gallant stopped off in New York on the way to coach Team Canada at the IIHF World Championships, taking place in Riga, Latvia.
