Fans Stunned by Peter Laviolette's Salary in New York

Peter Laviolette is a very good coach in his own right. He has led teams to Stanley Cups and the New York Rangers are betting on him to do the same for them.

It was announced today what his salary would be shocking fans

This is the 2nd most expensive known contract behind only Todd McLellan of the LA Kings.

Fans are reacting showing how stunned they are by Laviolette's contract:

Capitals fans are the ones mainly reacting considering how Laviolette failed to get them into the playoffs last season despite a strong team that could make the playoffs.

Laviolette will prove his worth if he is able to lead a competing Rangers to a Stanley Cup and if he is able to unlock the true potential of young players like Kaapo Kakko and Alexis Lafreniere.
