The Rangers job is Mike Sullivan's if he wants it — but it comes with questions
Should I simply pull out a sentence from either the 2021 or 2023 coaching searches to remind folks there have been three head coaches in NHL history to win the Stanley Cup with more than one team, with the one and only Scotty Bowman able to pull off the feat over the past eight decades?
(Tommy Gorman won the Cup in 1934 with the Blackhawks and in 1935 with the Montreal Maroons, and Dick Irvin was behind the bench when the 1932 Maple Leafs and 1946 Canadiens captured the chalice.)
So when Mike Sullivan, who 'parted ways' with the Penguins on Monday morning, gets his next gig, will Pittsburgh's 2016 and 2017 Cup-winning coach become the fourth name on that exclusive list, or will the 57-year-old fall short like a multitude before him?
Another question, and this one is more pointed:

Rams Head Coach Addresses Matthew Stafford and Davante Adams' Pairing
Rams Head Coach Addresses Matthew Stafford and Davante Adams' Pairing originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay had strong words when asked about the pairing of former New York Jets wideout Davante Adam and his Super Bowl-winning quarterback, Matthew Stafford. Advertisement The 37-year-old quarterback appeared in 16 games for the Rams during the 2024 season, throwing for 3,762 yards, 20 touchdowns and eight interceptions while leading Los Angeles into the postseason. The former Georgia Bulldog is entering his fifth season under head coach Sean McVay and 16th of his NFL career since being selected No. 1 overall in the 2009 NFL Draft by the Detroit Lions. NFL veteran Davante Adams, 32, signed with the Rams in the offseason after he was released by the Jets. Adams finished last season with 85 receptions for 1,063 yards and eight touchdowns despite playing with multiple starting quarterbacks. He has recorded 1,000-plus receiving yards six times throughout his NFL career and has totaled 103 touchdowns. McVay's respect for Adams was evident from the start, as he highlighted the All-Pro receiver's film in a team meeting shortly after his arrival. Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay looks Lew-Imagn Images Both veterans are proven stars — Stafford won Super Bowl LVI with McVay in February 2022, while Adams remains widely regarded as one of the NFL's premier route runners. Advertisement 'What I think is really cool to be able to witness is the respect that you can feel they have for one another,' McVay told reporters. "... Matthew's got such a great way of being able to connect and communicate. And it's the same thing with Davante. "Those guys have such a high level of understanding of what they want. ... It's been cool to watch." With both players entering the latter stages of their careers, McVay's focus remains on maximizing what they can do together — and looking to build on last year's playoff success. This story was originally reported by Athlon Sports on Jun 11, 2025, where it first appeared.
