Rangers, Dolan HAVE to Make Playoffs After Firing David Quinn The New York Rangers pushed all of their chips to the center of the table earlier today, when the team announced the firing of head coach David Quinn. Quinn, along with assistants David Oliver, Jacques Martin and Greg Brown were relieved of their duties, a decision that comes mere days after the team fired General Manager Jeff Gorton and Team President John Davidson. Last week, James Dolan told Larry Brooks of the New York Post that he "saw a weakness in the team that was not being addressed" and alluded to that being the reason Gorton and Davidson were fired. Well, if you're Dolan, you've now gutted the front office and the coaching staff in order to hire guys that will address this issue.
