Rangers retool front office by hiring their former players
NY Post
When the Rangers were eliminated from the playoffs back in 2024, Blake Wheeler wasn’t sure whether he’d want to come back and play another season.
He didn’t end up doing so, but the 39-year-old didn’t end up staying away from hockey for long.
Wheeler rejoined the Rangers Monday in a front-office role, taking the title of hockey operations advisor as part of a group of hirings and promotions announced by general manager Chris Drury.
As part of that, Ryane Clowe returned to the Blueshirts as an assistant general manager.
Ryan Martin was promoted from assistant GM to associate GM, while Jim Sullivan was promoted to assistant GM.
Martin will continue to hold the general manager title for AHL Hartford.

Suddenly, someone had hit a rewind button and everyone had been transported back seven months. It was early spring instead of late fall, it was broiling hot outside the arena walls and not freezing cold. Everyone was back at TD Garden. There were 19,156 frenzied fans on their feet begging for blood, poised for the kill.
