NHL News: The New York Rangers Fire John Davidson and Jeff Gorton, Promote Chris Drury

Elliotte Friedman: The New York Rangers have fired president John Davidson and GM Jeff Gorton.

Chris Drury will take over as President and GM of the Rangers.

Darren Dreger: Other teams have offered Chris Drury opportunities and he’s declined. His promotion by the Rangers makes sense. Rangers owner James Dolan must feel that it would benefit Drury if he were to handle the exit interviews, etc.

Thoughts and notes from the media

Darren Dreger: “I’m told the firing of Gorton and Davidson by NYR is coincidental and not related to the statement issued yesterday related to Tom Wilson.
