NYR GM Jeff Gorton is at World Championships in Denmark, so nothing is believed to be imminent but Quinn has already interviewed. For now, he appears to be a primary target.

Of the potential rookie head coaches, Quinn has a lot of the right tools to be a fit in NYC. Proven player development track record, pro experience, right demeanor/approach to handle pressure and scrutiny, good rapport with players. Won’t flinch in tough job. https://t.co/xVZwu7jdfJ
