The New York Rangers naming John Davidson President is exciting for a number of reasons. For many, that reason stems from who he is and what he means to the franchise. But above all else, that excitement should revolve around his qualifications for the job and how he can help take the Rangers to the next level.
There are still questions on the direction the team will take under Davidson, but so far it’s become clear that he wants to be hands on in the process, while still allowing general manager Jeff Gorton continue the rebuilding process he started.
