Jeff Gorton and Glen Sather stood side by side at the press conference on Thursday just as their signatures were side by side below the letter distributed the same day to season-ticket holders in which management stated its intent to focus on the future even if at the expense of a 2018 playoff berth.
And, The Post has learned, the two executives will remain side by side at the top of the Rangers’ hockey department through 2018-19, with Sather having agreed to extend his tenure on Broadway that began in June 2000 to a 19th year.
