"#NYR are not making a change just to go for another veteran coach who's good, affable ... they want a name. A guy who's proven it, who's won it, who's been there. The one guy who's out there is Joel Quenneville."

— @StapeAthletic on Garden Faithful podcast
"If I'm picking one guy to move off this #NYR roster, I'm biting the bullet and trying to see what I can get for Lafrenière. I know the regret will be there. I compare it to when Tampa traded Jonathan Drouin ... I wonder if they could even get a first, plus for him right now."
"I think the evidence to me throughout the whole year, and it's obvious if you're looking at the last seven games, I'd say this guy just doesn't have it. I don't think they're built to accommodate another year or two before he's gonna get it."
"...I just have a feeling that [Lafreniere] is not a guy that's ever going to bust out playing in this program, with these guys in front of him, with this makeup of this group. And the sooner you move on from that and try a different tact, maybe you'll find some success." #NYR

"I asked Trouba [about Gallant] and his answer was kind of perfunctory, I felt. It wasn't really a glowing endorsement of the coach — let's put it that way."

— @wyshynski on #NYR breakup day
"Fox gave a really eloquent answer about how Gallant does a lot of things that we don't get to see in the media and in the public — he's a coach that understands the work-life balance of his players." #NYR
"[Gallant] is kind who we thought he was. When he was fired in Vegas, the aftermath of that was that he was a stubborn guy, to his own admission, who doesn't really do in-game adjustments all that well, and you could really see that in the Devils series." #NYR

"I don't like this idea that we fire Gallant and everything is better. That's not how this works. Maybe you can do certain things differently but your best players have to be better than that. I thought the game seven was stunning."

— @FriedgeHNIC on #NYR first round postmortem
"I understand that when you're a coach you take the blame for a lot of things, but I think what we saw from this series and the reason the #NYR lost it, was a lot more than just the head coach."
"I think [Panarin] is why you're hearing a lot of Joel Quenneville. Now, we don't know if #NYR are going to be able to do this. They have to go through the NHL and the NHL has to decide whether or not they're going to reinstate Quenneville."

"I think it's fair to say that Lindy Ruff outreached Gerard Gallant. The Devils got better as the series went on and the #NYR just failed to counter that and got worse as the series went on."

— @vzmercogliano on @JeffMarek show
"And so now, it seems like it's a real possibility that Gallant could sort of pay for the disappointment. I think we'll get that answer this week. #NYR
"I think that they're going to attack this off-season with urgency both when it comes to the coaching decision and what they might do with the roster. They want to win now. They want results now." #NYR

"They seemed like they had bottom-six forwards that were bottom-six forwards last year. This year #NYR seemed like they had ... more of a collection of stars and not as many role players."

— @EJHradek_NHL on latest Game Misconduct podcast
"...when the boat started to rock after the Devils got back in the series, #NYR didn't have any answers. Kane ... he put up points, but he wasn't a dangerous player, certainly at 5v5. I don't know if anybody on #NYR was a dangerous player at 5v5 as the series started to unwind."
"I get the sense Gerard Gallant will be out, maybe by the end of the week. Not sure of any timeline, but everything I've heard tells me he's gonna be out and they're gonna make a really strong pitch to get Joel Quenneville." #NYR

"I think we all know what's going to happen. It sounds like there's going to be a biblical sacrifice here. There's too much noise not to think there isn't going to be a coaching change."

— @FriedgeHNIC on #NYR from latest Jeff Marek Show
"You look at the production of the #NYR in this series, I'm not sure any coach survives players like Panarin and Lafrenière having the series that they had."
"People can complain all they want about how [Gallant] didn't adjust. You could get the best coach, the best adjustment coach in the NHL — if that's the production you get from some of your top players, particularly at 5v5, you're not going to win. It's that simple."
