On to the next one…

Another change at head coach for the Rangers.

After two strong regular seasons, one fun postseason run and one failed playoff run, Gerard Gallant is out as head coach.

Who might replace him?

We discuss on an emergency episode of the “Up In The Blue Seats” podcast with our two favorite Rangers writers at The Post, Mollie Walker and Larry Brooks.

Up In The Blue Seats Podcast with Mollie Walker, Jake Brown & Larry Brooks:

  • GALLANT FIRING: Team failed in the playoffs in a major way. He was a good coach and had strong regular seasons, but hard to justify keeping after a first round exit when the team had expectations to win a Stanley Cup. He was as humane of a coach as Larry has ever covered.
  • ROSTER DECISIONS: Not only does this team have a major decision at head coach, but there are a lot of tough roster decisions that will need to be made.
  • POTENTIAL REPLACEMENTS: Who might replace Gallant? Would Laviolette be a safe bet? Do they go with someone from within?
