I generally like to use this opportunity to interact with you on off-topics, perhaps personal recollections from nearly five decades — seven decades, really, counting the 50-cent GO seats in the side balcony at the old barn and the blue seat I occupied as a season subscriber in the new place’s original Section 419 — immersed with the Rangers.
But there are no off-topics today. There is only one topic, and that is the team spiral that threatens to send the 2024-25 Blueshirts into a very dark place.
I can tell you with absolute confidence there is no credibility to the report that first popped up over the weekend on the social media platform X linking the Rangers to Joel Quenneville. That was spun out of thin air. There has been no contact between the parties and there will be no contact between the parties.
The Rangers are not going to fire Peter Laviolette. The Rangers are committed to Peter Laviolette. They are not bum-rushing this coach out of town.
