The New York Rangers have reached an agreement to hire Gerard Gallant as the club's 36th head coach on Monday, according to Larry Brooks of the New York Post.
Terms of the agreement were not immediately disclosed.
Gallant replaces David Quinn, who compiled a 96-87-25 record from 2018-2021 while helping guide the team's rebuild.
It was an unprecedented end to the season in New York off the ice as the Rangers called on the NHL to relieve George Parros of his duties as the head of the league's Department of Player Safety following an injury to winger Artemi Panarin by Washington Capitals repeat offender Tom Wilson.
