Gallant just a few short weeks after being let go by this esteemed organ-eye-zation.

It’s pretty funny this thread started two weeks ago with @EdJovanovski posting the Real Ad tweet saying this was going to happen, and it ultimately did.

As @RangerBoy pointed out last week, it’s sad that for the second straight coaching hire, Drury’s plan A was waiting to see if a coach would get fired (Sullivan, RBA before hiring Gallant, and now Sullivan again before hiring Lav) by another team to then hire him.

Larry Brooks reported that Information. Drury plans his coaching hires waiting to see who gets fired. No imagination.

Even if the Rangers had a good coach, Drury is incapable of making the right moves

Nemeth's contract(3/$7.5M) was traded with two 2nd round picks attached

Buchnevich was given away for nothing. People say Gorton was also trading Buchnevich but Gorton was getting back more than Blais and a 2nd.

Goodrow was given 6 years and $3.6M AAV. How many assets is Chris attaching to move that contract?

Reaves for a 3rd and then trades Reaves for a 5th

Gallant is gone after two seasons.

All of the Chris's moves when he became Rangers GM backfired.

LOL. Gallant is trending on Twitter, but Laviolette isn't.

Tells me all I need to know.



Gallant looks like a turtle and Farrell sounds like a toad. Pond animals stick together.

Has it been reported anywhere that the Rangers would have to add an asset to Goodrow to trade him? Am I that out to lunch to think that he'd actually net the Rangers an asset back if he's dealt?

It’s funny because that doesn’t exactly send a great message to the guy they eventually do hire.

“Hey Peter I know we interviewed you a month ago but can you just wait another week for our answer? We want to see if a better option becomes available.”

Staple has mentioned that. Goodrow hasn't appeared on any buyout lists.

The only way Drury can add a fresh face or two is by trading a familiar face or two. Barclay Goodrow is the obvious choice to be moved since he has no trade protection and would require only a moderate trade sweetener (a third-rounder? Second-rounder?) to get a team with loads of cap space to accept a deal.

Rangers mailbag, part 3: salary cap strategy, free agents, possible roster changes

There are most certainly going to be changes to the team with a new coach, even if the roster doesn't look much different.

Staple was out to lunch with his latest article. He didn't know what the Rangers acquired for Georgiev and didn't realize the Rangers traded two 2nd round picks to move Nemeth's contract.

Lacy is a terrible coach. hasn’t learned anything or changed how he plans a game, he also hurts our young players still. This move sis terrible and looks like in a few years we will be trash.

Kevin McCarthy is attached to Laviolette at the hip.

That’s my fear.

Another gallant and Kelly. At least this time McCarthy is the defensive assistant.

Need someone refreshing on offense at least, that’s been the crux of the problem

If it's Lavi, I guess I can't complain.

Wanted Sutter, but I was more in the "no Q at all cost" camp .

I have been saying this for a long time. That offseason was a complete disaster.
