It's really hard to put into words how great of a Ranger he was. It's a travesty he never won a Cup.

What a player what a career. Only regret is him not winning a cup.

Fucking guy could make bowling shoes look sexy!!

 

God bless, and thanks for everything, Hank! You're the King!

[LindG1000]

The fucking king.

 

He made me love hockey again after years of just...hating this team. He made us believe we could win cups. He's probably among the best, if not in the conversation for the best, to ever wear our sweater.

 

It's a shame we never managed to get him that cup.

Don’t cry because it’s over. Smile because it happened.

Yepp. I remember as soon as he stepped in between the pipes for the first time as a ranger you knew it was going to be something special. Basically took the starting position away from.. I wanna say Weekes? and ran with it.

 

I started watching the rangers in roughly 97 and he is by far the best player I have seen put on this uniform in that time span (The guy in my avatar will hopefully change that).

 

This one hurts a bit.

To quote the great Duke Nukem, "Hail to the King, baby!".

Gotta retire #30 ASAP.

Gotta retire #30 ASAP.

 

It needs to be done this season. We have full crowds back now. Do it.

[Shane Falco]

 

 

And here I had prepared myself to watch him win a cup elsewhere.. this hurts.

[Blue Heaven]

Ugh! One of the greatest home grown NYR.....Looking forward to Lundqvist Night at MSG, better be this season!

Between Lundqvist starting out and Jagr's magical year, the 05-06 season will always hold a special place in my heart. For the first time in a decade I thought, 'The Rangers are back."

....and his hair was perfect.

Yepp. To this day one of my favorite seasons as a fan.

Hopefully he didn't get any bad health related news after just posting this one a week ago which kicked off the other thread. Hard to imagine he would bail one week later??

[Phil]

Best guess is he tried, but couldn't get medical clearance.

And ONLY if capacity is allowed.

yep, same. Tough way to go out in the end. Hopefully it doesn't impact his quality of life off the ice.
