Mike Sullivan is a "premier coach" in the NHL, and GM Chris Drury believes he's worth every cent.
We spend plenty of time pondering the net worth of NHL stars, but we got curious about Sullivan's worth as someone who started coaching in the NHL during the 2003-2004 season.
Sullivan has made headlines, winning two cups with the Penguins in back-to-back seasons. But with his calm, collected posture for one of the best to do it in the league, just how much has he earned coaching NHL players?
According to reports, Mike Sullivan's net worth isn't as much as we'd expect considering how long he's been a coach, and with a history of being an NHL player.
As of 2025, his net worth is estimated at approximately $10 million, according to sources like HockeyPlusZone.
He'll be able to accumulate more wealth the next two seasons, as he'll be getting paychecks from both the Penguins and Rangers.
His contract he signed with GM Chris Drury, pays him an AAV of $6.25 million. Paid like a premier coach in the NHL should be.
During his time with the Pittsburgh Penguins, his contract was extended through the 2026-27 season, with an annual salary of $5.5 million.
So the next two seasons he'll be earning $11.75 million, and his new deal with the Rangers is reportedly worth $35 million in total.
He'll be one of the highest-paid coach's in the league, thanks to GM Chris Drury and the New York Rangers organization.
Do you consider Mike Sullivan an elite-level coach in the NHL, or has his time as one of the best gone already?
