If the Rangers weren't really designed to win this year (and they weren't), and the talent was pretty bare to begin with, are the dismissals necessary or window dressing? As a fian, I really don't care to be honest but I find it a little like the head football coach that has a bad year and then fires the OC to placate the fan base and give himself more time. Is Woodward's time coming next year? I've always thought that he would end up being the coach that gets fired once the team starts having expectations he can't quite fulfill.
I think the offense hasn’t been good for multiple seasons. The status quo wasn’t working. We don’t know if Woodward is a good in-game manager yet. He’s being judged on the character stuff, clubhouse chemistry, getting guys on board. Next season is also the last on his contract. Big year coming.
