Report: Rangers bringing in Sean Avery to help solve their problems
Ok… wtf is actually going on with the Rangers?!
UPDATE: TNT NHL broadcaster Paul Bissonnette is reporting that former New York Rangers forward Sean Avery is expected to meet with Rangers owner James Dolan this week “to talk about the state of the New York Rangers.”
Bissonnette reports that Dolan could fire GM Chris Drury and hire Avery for the position.
From Bissonnette:
“I’m also hearing rumblings that Sean Avery is going over to NYC to talk about the state of the New York Rangers. There is a crazy element to James Dolan that might get rid of Drury and hire Sean Avery as the next general manager.”
Bissonnette would go on to say that Avery is “flying to New York to speak with James Dolan to talk specifically about the state of the team.”
From Bissonnette on today’s Spittin’ Chiclets podcast:
Read below for our earlier reports on all the drama surrounding the Rangers today.
According to a report from NHL analyst Steve Dangle, the New York Rangers held a players’ meeting yesterday where they discussed a plan for ridding the team of GM Chris Drury.
Dangle made the report on yesterday’s Steve Dangle Podcast, insisting that players have turned on their GM and are now actively trying to have him removed from his position.
From Dangle:
“There was a players only meeting and it was not to discuss Peter Laviolette…that relationship is fine…Their main gripe is Chris Drury…They want him to either change his ways or be gone.”
– Chris Drury
That’s the least surprising thing I’ve heard in a while, to be honest.
It’s clear that Drury forced out Trouba as an effort to ‘shake up the room’ and evidently it worked. There are rumors that Drury is trying to rid the team of both Chris Kreider and Mika Zibanejad, also. Two of the longest-serving, most prideful Rangers. I could see how rumors like that would begin to fracture a team’s confidence in their GM.
Former 2nd overall pick Kaapo Kakko isn’t hiding his frustration behind locker room doors though. He vented his anger to Rangers insider Mollie Walker today, expressing exasperation for being scratched from the lineup earlier this week.
It’s clear that the kid is frustrated and Laviolette understands that, but tells the media that he’ll be addressing those issues in-person.
The players feel like they were stabbed in the back by Drury and Laviolette now they’re looking to return the favor. Hard to blame ’em…
What ultimately comes from this meeting remains to be seen because Rangers owner James Dolan has shown nothing but support for Drury since his hired him personally back in 2021.
