	Boston.com / Sports / Hockey / N.Y. Rangers name Tom Renney head coach (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Tom Renney is ready to rebuild the New York Rangers, no small task considering the team has missed the NHL playoffs seven straight years.
		Renney went 5-11-0-4 after taking over from Glen Sather, who stepped down Feb. 25 to focus solely on being the general manager of the struggling club.
		Renney, formerly a head coach with Vancouver, was already in the Rangers' front office before joining Sather's coaching staff at the start of last season.

		Renney is one of the leading candidates to win the Jack Adams Trophy as this year's coach of the year, but you wouldn't know it by the way his club has performed in the playoffs.
		One has to question why Renney felt compelled to make such a drastic move so early in the series, especially when they were minus Jagr (the club's best forward) and Kasparaitis (their top defenceman), and were playing on the road.
		Renney admitted that he considered bringing in young reinforcements from New York's American Hockey League affiliate in Hartford earlier in the series, but a sense of loyalty to the players who propelled the Rangers into the post-season for the first time in nine years prevented him from doing so.

	TOM DROPS BOMB By LARRY BROOKS - New York Post Online Edition: Sports (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Tom Renney hasn't used the press to deliver messages to referees throughout the season.
		Renney's resisted ever since the Rangers acquired Sykora in January - the coach is concerned about defensive shortcomings - but the Devils were once concerned about that, too, when Sykora played there.
		They were concerned, that is, until they gave him the opportunity and watched him fire away from 60 feet with a heavy shot that nearly always found the net and produced numerous rebound opportunities for hungry teammates.

		On Tuesday, July 6, the Rangers announced that Tom Renney will shed his 'interim' status and become the full-time coach of the Blueshirts heading into the 2004-05 season.
		What will be important for Tom now is bringing in his own staff and have that staff start working together, starting right now, season or not.
		He knows he is the boss, he has to hire his own staff and it doesn't matter if you are a 19-year-old kid with this team or a 30-year-old veteran, he is the boss and everybody has to be accountable.

		Renney said Jagr felt better on Monday after receiving treatment and expected that he would play again during the series.
		The Rangers, who dropped their final five games of the regular-season to fall from first to third in the Atlantic Division, were already big underdogs to the surging Devils before losing their biggest offensive force.

	Renney's Goal: Straighten the Stagger - New York Times
		Rangers Coach Tom Renney is trying to boost the confidence of players who lost five games in a row at the end of the season, letting an Atlantic Division title slip away.
		Renney, who coached the Canucks in his first stint in the N.H.L., was known as a hard-driving tactician who suffocated his players with rules.
		Renney found shelter as the Rangers' director of player personnel in 2000, became an assistant coach in 2003 and was promoted to interim head coach in 2004.

		Renney said his first priority is to develop a system that applies pressure all over the ice and mold a team that is "responsible" and can "gain the respect of our opponents and then the rest of the NHL."
		Renney, formerly a head coach with Vancouver, served as New York's director of player personnel and vice president of player development before joining Sather's coaching staff at the start of last season.
		Renney's mark in the final 20 games of the dismal season clearly wasn't a factor in Sather's decision to give him the job on a permanent basis.

		Renney, who is the coach of the year in the NHL whether he actually gets the Jack Adams trophy or not, described the sportcoat thusly: "It was a beige-y, orange-y thing with a bit of a tan plaid look to it."
		Renney became the team's director of player personnel when Glen Sather took over in 2000 — he'd been wooed by Sather to be an assistant in Edmonton, but always had prior commitments — and was right under Sather's nose.
		Tom Poti, the longest-tenured Ranger, was one of Renney's early benchings, as the coach let it be known that those who do their jobs play, those who don't don't.

		After initially absolving Lundqvist of blame for the 6-1 shellacking the Rangers took Saturday afternoon, Renney told reporters immediately after practice that he had yet to focus on the rookie's performance in his review of the Game 1 video.
		After all, just before Lundqvist returned for the regular season finale after missing 2-1/2 weeks with a hip flexor strain, Renney conceded that the team played with more confidence when he was in goal.

		If Tom Renney is serious about putting the best team on the ice, he will have to let some of the younger defensemen, like Thomas Pock and Bryce Lampman, prove that they can be worse that these guys, not assume that they will be based solely on experience and contract.
		Renney said nothing about him afterwards, other than stating the obvious, which is that he is number one in net unless someone unseats him.
		Renney said that although he does have a goaltending hierarchy in mind, and that the real battle is for number two, that he was open to let things happen as they would, which is part of what training camp is about after all.

	Gamble in Goal Leaves Rangers Tapped Out - New York Times
		Rangers Coach Tom Renney rolled the dice by putting Kevin Weekes in goal against the Philadelphia Flyers last night at Madison Square Garden.
		Renney's decision to start Weekes was somewhat of a surprise, considering Renney had said that Lundqvist would probably start after a 1-0 overtime loss to Tampa Bay at the Garden on Tuesday night.
		But before last night's game, Renney said he had changed his mind, in part, because Weekes had played well in the first meeting between the teams this season: a 5-3 Rangers' victory in Philadelphia on opening night.

		Next, the decision to hire Tom Renney as head coach, which was seen by some as a mistake because his previous tenure, a failed run in Vancouver, was several years ago.
		Yet Renney was able to do what those before him over the last 9 years have failed to accomplish, get the Rangers to buy into a team concept of play.
		Renney isn’t over-relying on the expensive vets on his roster to carry load, but ensuring that the younger players get a fair share of ice time and opportunities to contribute, rather than burying them on the roster as his predecessors did.
