How did David Quinn celebrate his first win as an NHL coach? By watching film of the game on his way home from the rink.
In the hours after reaching the milestone, Quinn wasn't interested in taking the time to let it sink in. "It's the coaching that kicked in, honestly," Quinn said on Friday. "I'm thinking about the last 25 minutes (of Thursday's game) when I felt we did the things we needed to do to have success, and then I was thinking about the first 35 minutes when I wanted to resign and go sell insurance."
The Rangers were back to work the morning after their thrilling overtime win over San Jose, preparing for Saturday's matinee match at the Garden with Connor McDavid and the Edmonton Oilers, the middle game of a three-game homestand against Western Conference opponents.
