"Tanner Glass has been promoted to the position of new Director of Player Development. This was always the most likely possibility, as Glass was the Assistant Director before Ortmeyer was let go."
"Rangers player development probably can't get much worse, so giving Glass a bit of leeway heading into his new role is the right thing to do."
"Remember, the most skilled players rarely make the best coaches. Just look at Wayne Gretzky. Meanwhile it's the guys with shorter careers that wind up being the best coaches."
"Glass is fighting an uphill battle as he takes on this new responsibility."
Tanner Glass has been promoted to Director of Player Development for the Rangers following the firing of Jed Ortmeyer. Glass previously served as the Assistant Director, making this promotion a likely choice. The player development under the Rangers has faced challenges, suggesting that giving Glass some leeway in his new role is appropriate. Historical examples indicate that the most skilled players do not always transition into the best coaches, and Glass will need to overcome skepticism as he takes on this new responsibility.
