Thanks for all those cups you said NY money would bring.

Made some good trades but also fucked us pretty hard on the flip side. Enjoy retirement.

No idea how this guy stuck around the organization for so long with so little to show for it. Hiring Brian Trottier as coach should have been the end for him in 2002, I have no idea how he stuck around for another 20 years. When I was a kid, maybe 13 or 14 I had a shirt that said “Sather Sucks” in the shape of the Rangers logo.

I’ll believe Sather is truly no longer working with the organization when he dies. And even then I wouldn’t be shocked if Dolan broke out a Oujia board to ask him which washed up free agent they should sign.

Didn’t glen say if he had the rangers budget he’d win the cup every year. ?

Good riddance. But this is only one tumor that needs to be excised from the Rangers organization. The other one unfortunately is going to be much harder to get rid of.

Sorry, I won’t believe for a second he’s done meddling and sticking his nose into things, or whispering into Dolan’s ear, until he’s dead. He’s the main reason there hasn’t been a Cup in NY since he took over. Him, being Dolan’s boy the last 24 years, basically being “tenured” in our front office has hindered this franchise. Smug asshole who’s accomplishments in Edmonton were mainly due to their insane scouting and luck having so many all-time legends. His real talent was forming good relations with other executives around the league and bedazzling Dolan for all these years.

Does that mean Dolan has a direct line to Drury now?

Glen Sather once said that if he had the Rangers’ payroll he’d win multiple cups
Here we are almost 30 years later, with 1 *appearance* in the finals and 0 cups, both of which are fewer than that of the Panthers in the same timeframe
Also Drury saying “I was so fortunate to lean on him for guidance as I began my own career in the front office” is remarkably evident

Nothing stopping Dolan from calling up Glen

RIP ya dumb bitch. Been waiting for this day for years.
Hopefully the ways of Glen go with him. The Rangers will never be successfully paying out post-prime veterans, winning the offseason headlines, and ignoring modern analytics.
Invest in scouting, invest in player development, give kids a chance to learn and fail, extend them early and young, fill out low minute pieces in free agency, value 5 on 5, stop relying on elite goaltending. He wasted the opportunity of one elite goalie. Hopefully Drury learns from those mistakes.
Honestly a great time for Drury to clean house of any of Sathers buddies. And with Sather gone now, Drury will know the crown is heavy.

Thank you Glen for Igor Ulanov.

I’ve got only one thing to say:
#YIPPEE FUCKING SKIPPY!!!
Informal_Abies_9310
OMG!!!!!!!!!!! WE ARE FREE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YESSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Next fire Drury and replace him with Jarmo………… Shoot Dolan out to the moon….and give the Rangers to an owner that actually understands hockey on some level and is more interested in winning vs. making share holders happy.
What a dumpster fire the Glenn Sather rangers were. If this truly is the end…..I can’t tell you how happy I am, but part of me knows better.

Drafted Hank, Kreider Dubi, Cally, Stepan, Staal, Hagelin – got Zucc, Girardi – robbed the Habs for McDonagh. GOT JAGR! Gaborik and Nash. Better than Isiah Thomas?
Hopefully I’m accurate here.

Now fire james dolan into the sun and we might actually win a chip

Am I the only one that disliked Sather the entire time he was with the Rangers? He always seemed untouchable while we have 1 cup to show for in 30 years. He always came off as power hungry and self serving and helping the Rangers as secondary task. Super happy about his retirement, for him and but mostly the organization.

Long ago I had his direct number and would routinely leave him breathless messages from celebrities about guys he had to dump or acquire. Eventually I provoked him enough for him to repeadedly call me back to tell me to fuck off. I still remember the glee I felt when my stick phone display lit up with “Glen Sather.” Thanks for the memories you clown!
