Former Rangers player Sean Avery made an announcement regarding the team's head coaching job after his meeting with GM Chris Drury. Sean Avery played 590 regular-season games in the NHL, 264 of them with the New York Rangers, and was a highly physical player <a href='https://thehockeynews.com/news/thn-archive-sean-avery-and-the-art-of-being-the-nhls-evil-genius' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>who had somewhat of a pest-like mentality</a>, traits synonymous with Rangers hockey. <div align='center' class='pl20 pr20'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/NYRFanatic/status/1855444168027308398'> </a></blockquote></div> Of course, that would mean he could find himself back with the organization in a different role should GM Chris Drury opt to let head coach Peter Laviolette go. In fact, there are reports Sean Avery already met with Chris Drury to pitch himself as Peter Laviolette's potential replacement behind the bench. I have put my name in the hat officially for the head coach position of the New York Rangers. I have my staff already contacted. We've worked out everything, responsibilities... I'm actually thinking about having a co-head coach with Steve Ott. - Sean Avery <div align='center' class='pl20 pr20'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/KidLineLover/status/1869262908695429442'> </a></blockquote></div> Incidentally, former NHLer Paul <a href='https://www.hockeylatest.com/nhl-team/new-york-rangers/sean-avery-could-be-coming-back-to-the-nhl-with-the-rangers-and-it-not-for-a-good-reason' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>Bissonnette thinks Avery might also be a candidate to replace Drury as general manager</a>. <div align='center' class='pl20 pr20'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/spittinchiclets/status/1869178412260307100'> </a></blockquote></div> However, according to NHL insider Emily Kaplan, owner James Dolan still seems pleased with the performance of his current general manager. The one reporting I did land on though is the owner James Dolan still supports Chris Drury. In fact, James Dolan was aware of that memo Drury sent out last month that has now begun this free fall. This begs the question, will Avery's return to the team take a coaching form instead of a front office role? The Rangers seem set to make another dramatic move soon. <a href='https://www.hockeylatest.com/nhl-team/new-york-rangers/the-new-york-rangers-have-just-traded-their-captain-jacob-trouba' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>After major roster changes</a>, including sending Jacob Trouba and Kaapo <a href='https://www.nhl.com/kraken/player/kaapo-kakko-8481554' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>Kakko</a> away via trades, the next big switch could come within the coaching staff or management. Where Sean Avery does or does not fit in, remains yet to be seen.
