How big of a difference will Jeff Gorton be for the Rangers?
Jeff Gorton's past has always been shrouded in some form of mystery. Gorton was with the Bruins for 15 years before he joined the New York Rangers. Of those 15 years in Boston he spent the final seven as assistant general manager.
He was an architect of the Boston Bruins Stanley Cup champion team, but how much of an architect remains to be seen. He filled in the gaps between Mike O'Connell and Peter Chiarello, famously pulling off the Tuukka Rask for Andrew Raycroft highway robbery general managers can only dream of doing.
