RichieNextel305 Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 Was an honor for us all having a front row seat to his greatness. From Day 1 all the way through. Just a true professional and an amazing superstar. Well deserved. Congrats Hank! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bugg Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 But for some players who could score goals in the playoffs; well-deserved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First season it was possible for me to regularly watch games online and not just one in a blue moon when the stars aligned and german TV decided to show the Rangers instead of the Red Wings was his Rookie season. Cheesy, but the last sports star I really looked up to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dude Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 Literally a class act. So glad he's part of the broadcast team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharpshooter Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 Quote Alexa, play The King of Kings by Motorhead. It was a treat watching a Hall of Fame career here for so long. We definitely got spoiled. He was ingrained in the culture and represented the organization so well. For those who watched Eddie Giacomin play, I understand the kind of love you had for him even more. I'm also glad this franchise can get one thing right, and that's finding goaltending. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Br4d Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 Another great Ranger goalie. Well deserved trip to the HoF. Now we need to figure out why the Rangers haven't developed a single consistent goal scorer in the fifty years I've been watching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Murdoch was the jinx that started the drought! Although Duguay did hit 40 in one season ('82). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karan Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 Looking back it's kind of ridiculous how he managed to perfectly balance being a top performer in his position, a consummate professional his entire career and not getting involved in any scandals/controversies, while at the same time turning in an absolute fucking legend and charismatic fan favorite. True definition of a complete player. And couldn't be more deserving of this honor. Feel very lucky/fortunate to have seen his entire career. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really kind of amazing that the last pure goal scorer the Rangers developed was Rod Gilbert and he was kind of on the low side of what you would consider a pure goal scorer. The Rangers traded for Phil Esposito, who was a great goal scorer, and he immediately became only good at it. I just can't figure out what the deal is. Are there hidden rink effects that we haven't figured out yet? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
