Peter Laviolette New York Rangers: 2024-25 Season Opening Presser

Peter Laviolette isn’t looking to reinvent the wheel, as the second-year Rangers head coach put it, with his plans to prepare his team for the 2024-25 season.

Coming off a campaign that resulted in the most wins in the NHL and the Presidents’ Trophy, why would he?

The numbers and accolades attached to Laviolette’s first season behind the Blueshirts bench speak for themselves, which has the veteran coach sticking to his philosophies.

“I’m being honest here, we never talked about [winning the Presidents’ Trophy],” he said in his preseason news conference with reporters in Tarrytown on Wednesday. “It wasn’t something that was written up on the board. The goal was always to have good days, to focus on the wins and try to get better, try to become better as you’re moving along.
“Try to win hockey games, you know, as many as we could — but doing it on a short-term basis of attacking each day and making the most of each day. Nothing will change from that. That’d be great to get the same number of wins or more wins, but there’s 31 other teams that want to have a say in that as well. Sometimes I think it’s best to just bring it back and really keep it simple and just focus on the daily basis.
