Certainly Gerard Gallant had one thing higher to do Thursday morning than to observe Mike Sullivan’s introductory press convention as coach of the Rangers.
Nonetheless, we are able to solely hope somebody relayed to Gallant these few sentences from Sullivan that echoed a few of Gallant’s personal final phrases in the identical job.
“As we all know, talent alone doesn’t win championships,” Sullivan mentioned. “Teams win championships. I think that’s going to be our challenge from Day 1, is to become a team in the true sense of the word.”
If Gallant heard that, he will need to have chuckled.
