The New York Rangers have announced that after six decades in hockey, senior advisor to the owner and alternate governor Glen Sather has announced his retirement from professional hockey. Sather joined the Rangers 24 years ago and held several positions in the organization including president and general manager when he was first hired by the Rangers in June 2000.Best porn XXX. Sather ended his run as Rangers general manager in July 2015 and at the time he finished with an NHL record 2700 regular-season games and career regular-season wins with 1319. He remained Rangers president until 2019. Sather’s run in New York never resulted in a Stanley Cup, but he is the winningest general manager in franchise history and was the architect of a very successful decade-long run that saw the Rangers make the playoffs in 11-of-12 seasons and win a playoff series in 5-of-6 seasons. The Rangers also won the President’s Trophy in Sather’s final season as general manager, finishing the year with 113 points and 53 wins. Sather was a five-time Stanley Cup champion with the Edmonton Oilers and also the head coach for four of those five title wins, joining Punch Imlach as one of only two people in hockey history to win at least four Stanley Cups as both a coach and general manager. He was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1997 but continued to work. Along with his incredible NHL resume, Sather also led Team Canada to a pile of success internationally guiding teams to a Canada Cup Championship in 1994, as well as the World Hockey Championship in the same year. Sather will long be remembered for the Oilers dynasty of the 1980s, however, the 1990s were a different time in which the Oilers didn’t have the financial means to compete with many of the NHL’s big spenders. Sather may have done some of his best work during this time, keeping Edmonton competitive as the team struggled to retain their top players in Edmonton due to financial constraints. PHR wishes Sather and his family all the best in retirement and congratulations on having one of the most incredible careers in hockey history.
