Glen Sather stepping down as Rangers’ GM

Larry Brooks has reported that Glen Sather will be stepping down as the Rangers’ general manager. There is a conference call scheduled for 4pm today in which it is expected that Jeff Gorton will be introduced as the new GM.

Sather’s last move as GM was to sign former Rangers’ defenseman Raphael Diaz to a contract this morning. Diaz filled in nicely as the 7D during the 2013-14 season with New York.
