NHL insider Elliotte Friedman discussed Larry Brooks’ recent column on Peter Laviolette and the New York Rangers. Brooks, writing for the New York Post, claimed the Rangers have quit on coach Laviolette.
The Rangers’ season has taken a sharp downturn. After a 12-4-1 start, they have gone 4-14-0 in their last 18 games. This collapse has left them in last place in the Metropolitan Division.
In his discussion with cohost Kyle Bukauskas about the Rangers on Monday, Dec 30's edition of the "32 Thoughts" podcast, Friedman mentioned that the Rangers witnessed a historic collapse.
"That is a historic collapse. Historic collapse" Friedman said,"... I don't know what happened here, but I don't think a very successful year should be blown up by just this one situation where you folded like the Soviet Union against Canada in 1972." [39:26]
