Great to see Torts get some recognition, but Hitchcock deserves it. The Blues were awful when he took over.

Torts should get it, but Hitchcock will probably end up with it.

Torts brought this team together...brought us to the top. He deserves it this year.

Torts without a doubt in my mind should be the winner. I think he has a real shot at it and people need to realize that yes the players and goalie(s) make the plays to get the wins but its the coach that implements the system, puts the right guys in there at the right time, teaches each player regardless of experience, instills a level of confidence in the team, stand in front of them when they're taking heat and step back when they succeed and reinforces how to play the right way. That is John Totorella and look at his results. ASK ANY RANGER FAN: Who among you would have predicted this team to have the success they've had so far? This team is special. Torts himself often speaks of the core players - the core is nothing without the coach and vice versa. Torts = Jack Adams

I believe he deserves the coach of the year. But will not get because he coached the rangers

You can easily make a case for each nominee. Torts and the team should be proud of the nomination because it is well deserved. I don't see a clear winner in there, but Torts did lead the Rangers to the top spot in the East.

Congrats and well deserved. A case can be made for all 3. Torts has built this team step by step and has a solid foundation right now. Hitchcock has done an incredible job and Paul MacLean's team wasn't even expected to make the playoffs. I would give it to MacLean but again, him and Torts being in the same conference could split votes which would help Hitchcock.

Hitch will win it, but I think Torts deserves it. Look at what he did this year, it is amazing.
