Tumult continued for the Rangers as David Quinn was fired on Wednesday after three seasons as the team’s coach. Jeff Gorton were dismissed a week ago. The 54-year-old Quinn was 96-87-25 behind the bench since replacing Alain Vigneault, who had coached the Rangers for the previous five seasons. Quinn has two years remaining on the five-year, $12 million contract the Rangers gave him to leave his college job for the N.H.L. Assistants David Oliver, Greg Brown and Jacques Martin were also dismissed, while goaltending coach Benoit Allaire, who has been with the organization since 2004, was retained.
