The next major decision for a busy-of-late New York Rangers’ front office is who will be at the helm of a retooled roster next year. While the roster will not be completely filled with turnover, it is no secret that the team is revamped with the departure of some franchise stalwarts and injection of young talent to replace the exiting veterans.
As the Rangers seek to turn over this new leaf, the question remains as to who will be behind the bench to usher in a new age of Blueshirts hockey. As is often the case, the incumbent coach is the first candidate many are considering to take on the role.
