The Rangers are not, cannot, and should not be in a rush to fill their head coach vacancy.
Firstly, they are not in a rush because they are still digesting this season, the first missed postseason in seven years. It was a successful five-year run for Alain Vigneault, but the organization has decided on moving in the direction of rebuilding with youth, and felt the timing was right for a change.
Now general manager Jeff Gorton and his staff need to decide exactly what they want for the future, and what they want in a candidate.
