This is the deal the owners wanted. This is the deal the owners deprived us of a season to get. Now its no good for them? Why? Because they can't control themselves. FUCK the owners.

Well....Thanks Renney for the good things you did. He brought back this team into playoffs hockey. He's done a lot of good things for this club. I wish him the VERY best and that another team in search for a coach hires him and that he succeeds. He's a good man, a great...smart hockey person.

Pearn.... go fuck yourself.

Now we're getting down to the nitty gritty of things. Slats is going to make some slick moves says i.

Out of respect for the newly departed, let us not compare Tom Renney to Isiah Thomas.

This will certainly settle some debates around here, that's for sure.

Oh no, that wasn't my intention per se. I was just trying to point out that Redden still sucks, Prucha isn't 225 lbs./6' 4", and Zherdev is the only winger with any discernible talent.

In other words, this isn't the 180 degree panacea everyone thinks it is. A good start, yes, but not the only issue.

In an interesting sidenote, all four NHL teams that opened the NHL season in Europe have now fired their head coaches this season. In addition to Renney, other coaches to get the axe are the Penguins' Michel Therrien, the Lightning's Barry Melrose and the Senators' Craig Hartsburg.

I swear to God. What's the fucking deal with Rangers fans and Torts?

The answer is no. He is not a good coach to have. He's a fucking asshole. It's one thing to have a tough coach in the locker room, another thing to have an asshole coach humiliate his players in front of the public.

And didn't we just hate Renney's defensive system? Guess what. Torts plays the TRAP!!!! Want to see the trap again? Be my guest. As long as there's no more bitching about boredom, be my guest.

Rangers just announced Tom Renney has been relieved of his duties along with assistant coach Perry Pearn. We'll have a conference call with GM Glen Sather later today. No announcement on Renney's replacement, either full time or interim but the strong belief is that it will be Jim Schoenfeld.

I agree fully...I feel bad in the sense Renny helped lead us out of the crap we were in for a decade. With that said, his stubborness to follow a system that clearly did not work was inexcusable.

I truly hope he'll land somewhere else, learn from the mistakes here and succeed.

I don't think you can judge our offensive potential until we start playing well...offensive.

There is no reason that Gomez, Drury, Zherdev, Callahan, Naslund, Korpikoski, Dubinsky, Prucha, could ALLLL bee 20+ goal scorers.

With Rosival chipping in about 10.
Mara and Stall 8 apiece
Redden ? Who knows

OK, this is totally out of left field, and no replacement has been named yet, and Schoenfeld is absolutely the favorite … but I could have sworn I saw Messier walk out of the coaches’ room very late last night, off in the background at the end of the postgame show.

It might not have been him, and even if it was, it may have meant nothing. Could be he left his jacket or something in there, too.

But …

francessa says torts is the front runner but seeing that francessa knows nothing about hockey i doubt it


Francessa knows the buzz words... he probably read an article or blog - has Eklund mentiond Torts? - and spewed it out on the radio.

Renney's replacement has not been announced, but the New York Post is reporting that it could be former Devils head coach Jim Schoenfeld, who works in the Rangers' front office.

I watched the Leafs broadcast last night, and the commentators all agreed - without Lundqvist the Rangers are a last place team. To me, this backs up my long held belief that whatever success the Rangers have had has been owed not to Renney, but to (primarily) Lundqvist.

Ending the playoff drought was nice but Renney didn't do it. It's like your boss getting all the crdeit for the good work that YOU do. I do not want him anywhere near our 'Yutes' as he will strangel and stifle all the creativity and love for the game right out of them - turning them all into a bunch of 3rd or 4th line role-players.

I just hope it's not too late for whoever comes in to de-program the kids and turn them back into players instead of wussed-out zombies.

Most of the major news outlets, including sportsnet.ca is reporting that the Rangers are in talks with Torts.


Let the Torts/Uncle Larry love fest begin! Those two are like peas in a pod.

Yeah, he was there - I mentioned I saw him lurking behind Al and Stan in the hallway last night.
