Laut der Toronto Sun will Mark Messier bei den New York Rangers als General Manager anfangen. Demnach soll Messier den jetzigen GM Glen Sather beerben wenn er retired (wann immer das sein soll). Der Sun sagte Messier:“I'm going to have discussions with Glen. I don't know how long Glen is going to keep doing it. Maybe he'll continue for another five or 10 years. I just know New York fits best for me and my family. And this is what I know best and what I love the most.”
Rangers GM Glen Sather selbst meinte zu der Toronto Sun zudem Thema:“He probably could. We'd have to sit down and figure out a lot of details. The first thing would be to be sure it's what he really wants to do because it's not something you can work at part time. I talked to him previously, just last spring, and he wasn't sure. I'm glad he's interested. He has been able to accomplish everything he set his mind to at this stage in his life. Most guys who have stepped in as a general manager have worked to get a little background, either in coaching or working under others in an organization. I think there are necessary steps to take.” Sather meinte auch das er nicht vor hat in naechster Zeit zurueckzutretten, weshalb Messier wohl warten muss.
Aber eins ist wohl klar, Mark Messier muss sehr davon ueberzeugt sein das er bei den Rangers unterkommen wird, ansonsten haette er nicht solche Aussagen getaetigt. Und Messier als Rangers GM wuerde auch passen, die NY Fans haben ihn immer geliebt (nicht so wie wir
), und man stelle sich mal vor Messier als GM und Gretzky als Coach bei den Rangers.
