James Dolan, executive chairman of MSG Sports, has transferred day-to-day control of the New York Rangers to his 32-year-old son, Quentin Dolan, the franchise announced Friday.

Quentin Dolan assumes the titles of president, chief operating officer and alternate governor for both the Rangers and their AHL affiliate, the Hartford Wolf Pack, according to the team.

Rangers president and general manager Chris Drury will keep his hockey operations duties but now reports directly to Quentin Dolan. James Dolan, 71, steps back from daily involvement while remaining team owner.

"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," said Quentin Dolan. "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. I'm looking forward to immediately getting to work with Chris Drury, Mike Sullivan, and the entire staff."

Quentin Dolan previously served as senior vice president of player performance and science for both the Rangers and the New York Knicks, roles he will continue holding alongside his new position.

Drury praised the restructuring in a statement released by the team.

"Quentin and I have worked together for several years, and I believe him taking on this role will only make the Rangers organization stronger," said Drury. "The front office and coaching staff will be working in unison with Quentin in all key areas of our team in an effort to put this franchise in the best position possible to compete for a Stanley Cup."

Quentin Dolan joined MSG Sports in 2022 and holds a bachelor's degree in sports and event management from New York University.

The promotion comes as the Rangers have missed the playoffs in consecutive seasons following their 2024 conference finals appearance. Drury outlined a roster retool in a letter to fans last January.
