Rangers fire Peter Laviolette

How does their GM survive this

By being the owner's very good boy.

What about powerplay guru John Maclean?

Id be devastated if he left us for the rangers. He’d make Lafreniere into a 30 goal scorer. The way he revitalized Anders Lee and has been instrumental in the development of Simon Holmstrom is nothing short of amazing!!

I think they're going to go all-in on hiring Tocchet to be their coach when Tocchet decides to move on from the Canucks.

Even better!

Not a surprise. Ranger turmoil makes this a joyful day.

 

[jetsforever]

Probably not his fault but obvious move to make

 

[wunderpanda]

they fired housley too

 

[FunkySeeFunkyDo]

I think they should hire Torts.

I think they should hire Sully.

 

[hangman005]

Wow what a day for me.

You wait until next week when the Rangers hire Cronin and the Ducks Laviolette

This sort of violence is uncalled for.

 

[Coffee]

Was obvious with how they collapsed. My guess is that they just scapegoat Laviolette for all of their issues and make a run at it again next year.

Now do Sullivan, right?

That is sad for you. Enjoy the weather instead.

 

[shello]

I think they should hire Torts.

Sign me up for that Brooks and Torts reunion

 

[57special]

Rangers seem like a mess.

 

[Zeeker]

Weird comment. Maybe he’s already enjoying the weather as well.

Why is he limited to one reason for enjoying the day?

 

[Leonardo87]

Stop firing all your coaches!

 

[qcal1427]

I think Drury should pull a Lou and put himself behind the bench lol

 

[Breakers]

I thought fox was a huge Housley guy?

 

[JKG33]

Shuffling deck chairs on the titanic. Its not just the coach thats pissing off players, its the whole shit ass organization

 

[TomBlizzy12]

Shocked pikachu face. I did not see this coming.

Rangers fans, tell me how you feel.

Hepatitis C ya later!

Hopefully they crater next year. Would be pretty great to have two shots at McKenna.

 

[Gjman2019]

Wow this franchise sure goes through a lot of caches...Lol

 

[Homelander]

Rangers seem like a mess.

Seem? You're far too kind.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Make the fans happy and give Drury anyway extension.

 

[goeb]

Seems harsh. Laviolette over-achieved last season. I mean the fact they won the President's Trophy was incredible really.

Laviolette has had a lot of success with a lot of different teams. Carolina, Nashville and the Flyers all had runs with him at the helm. Not many coaches can say they led 3 different teams to the finals during the career.

A team like Buffalo or Utah would love to even just have one breakout season. Anything beyond that would be icing on the cake. So Lavi will definitely have suitors, especially from teams that haven't sniffed the playoffs in a few years.

It's a good idea to clear your cache regularly
