Flyers general manager Danny Brière has one less interview to schedule now. Four days ago, Mike Sullivan and the Pittsburgh Penguins parted ways after 10 seasons. On Friday, he is heading to Broadway as the New York Rangers’ 38th head coach.

While the Penguins continued to have strong seasons under Sullivan, the team became known for its early playoff exits. After going 34-36 last season, the Penguins fired Sullivan in April. It was the first time in his Penguins tenure that the team finished under .500.

The New York Rangers have hired Mike Sullivan as coach, days after he and the Pittsburgh Penguins agreed to part ways.General manager Chris Drury announced the move Friday, bringing in the organization's top candidate who was out of work for less than a full business week.
