Rennie canned! (Update - Torterella new Head Coach)

I wonder if we\'ll see the trend of AHL coaches stepping into vacancies broken?

Is it time for the dominoes to fall for out of work coaches?

Forget that... Tortorella rumoured to come in. Confirmed:

Not surprised. It will do nothing to help this team though.

It begins...

From TSN.ca main page: BREAKING NEWS:

The New York Rangers have fired head coach Tom Renney.

Tortarella as POSSIBLEY the next coach eh? I wonder if he can help these sad sacks. Just imagine what he'll say about Redden!! Ahh good times good times indeed.

It'll be interesting to see if Tortorella can help this Dung team.

Will be a nice snapshot of what might have been in Ottawa.

Redden will be a powder-covered pile of goo.

I think Tortorella would be fantastic, or Bob Hartley. Rangers need an Donkey-kicker, not an Donkey-kisser

Rangers have fired their coach - per TSN

Possible replacement is J. Schoenfeld

Zherdev, Redden, those 2 may be done in NYR.

I just posted this in the wrong forum (Members Breaking News, I think) - can it be moved or deleted?

Definitely a GM problem, Renney is a fantastic coach.

Interesting that all four coaches that went to Europe are gone...
think the trip did something to the teams' ability to compete?

Agreed -
