Michael Barry Sullivan (born February 27, 1968) is an American professional ice hockey coach and former player who is the head coach for the New York Rangers of the National Hockey League (NHL). He was selected in the fourth round, 69th overall, by the New York Rangers in the 1987 NHL entry draft. Sullivan has also played for the San Jose Sharks, Calgary Flames, Boston Bruins, and Phoenix Coyotes. Internationally, he represented the United States twice, including at the 1997 World Championship. Sullivan turned to coaching upon his retirement in 2002 and served two seasons as the head coach of the Boston Bruins between 2003 and 2005. He served as an assistant coach with the Tampa Bay Lightning, New York Rangers, and Vancouver Canucks, and subsequently in player development with the Chicago Blackhawks for one year. After serving as head coach of the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins, he took over as head coach of the Pittsburgh Penguins in December 2015, and led the team to back-to-back Stanley Cup championships in 2016 and 2017, becoming the only American-born coach to win the Stanley Cup more than once. He was fired by the Penguins after the 2024–25 season, and was subsequently hired as the head coach of the Rangers. Sullivan was named head coach of the United States men's national ice hockey team for the 2022 Winter Olympics, but with the NHL withdrawing from the Olympics due to a COVID-19 surge, David Quinn, former head coach of the New York Rangers, was named as his replacement. He coached the United States in the 4 Nations Face-Off in 2025, where they finished in second place. Sullivan subsequently coached the U.S men's team to a gold medal at the 2026 Winter Olympics, the first gold medal for the U.S men's team since 1980 and third overall.
