Rangers head coach Mike Sullivan officially has to bring in two new assistant coaches.

Dan Muse, who was the last remaining assistant from Peter Laviolette’s staff in the mix to stick around, is succeeding Sullivan behind the Penguins bench, the team announced on Wednesday.

The Blueshirts bid farewell to Muse with a “Congratulations” post on X.

Pittsburgh will be Muse’s first head coaching gig in the NHL. The 42-year-old had spent the past six seasons as an assistant in Nashville and New York.

Muse follows Michael Peca out the door, after the latter took a job as an assistant on Jeff Blashill’s staff in Chicago.

The Rangers are still in the process of filling out the remainder of Sullivan’s staff.

Goalie coach Jeff Malcolm and skills coach Christian Hmura are expected to be the only holdovers from last season.
