When to prune rhododendron in eastern Mass?

Hi there - I'm wondering if I've missed the boat with pruning this year. I just deadheaded the spent flowers, but realize that the overall plant is getting quite leggy and would like to prune. I've read much about how to prune, and think I'd like to go for it - BUT - not sure about timing.

I've read that some prune VERY early in spring, before flowering, so energy goes to new growth.

Have I missed my opportunity at this point?

Thanks!
