James Dolan gives son Quentin day-to-day control of Rangers

James Dolan, executive chairman of MSG Sports, has given day-to-day operations of the New York Rangers to his 32-year-old son Quentin Dolan, the team announced Friday. Quentin Dolan is now the president, COO and alternate governor of the Rangers, operating the NHL club and its AHL affiliate, the Hartford Wolf Pack.

Rangers president and general manager Chris Drury will continue in his hockey operations roles and report directly to Quentin Dolan, who will report to James Dolan as the 71-year-old owner steps back from day-to-day responsibilities of the Rangers.

"I've always had a tremendous respect and admiration for the New York Rangers organization, it's been a part of my life for as long as I can remember," Quentin Dolan said. "I'm honored to have this opportunity to ensure our hockey operations staff, coaches, and players have all the support they need to provide our fans a product they can be proud of.

He will continue to serve in those roles. He joined MSG Sports in 2022 and holds a bachelor's degree in sports and event management from New York University. "Quentin and I have worked together for several years, and I believe him taking on this role will only make the Rangers organization stronger," Drury said.

" "For me, the ultimate goal is winning a championship. It's been a goal of mine to really continue my father's and grandfather's legacy, and that's something that I understood about myself and wanted early on," Quentin Dolan told the New York Post this week. " The Rangers have missed the playoffs for two straight seasons after making the conference finals in 2024.

Drury released a letter to fans last January signaling a "retool built around our core players and prospects" -- the second such letter in eight years for the franchise.
