I was curious as to how the NY Rangers were named RANGERS being in NY and here is what I learned via the NET .
In 1925, the New York Americans joined the National Hockey League and played their home games at the old Madison Square Garden. Tex Rickard, the boxing promoter and ex-gold prospector who built and owned the arena, decided he wanted his own NHL team, which he was awarded in 1926. Rickard's team was immediately dubbed "Tex's Rangers" as a pun referencing the paramilitary force founded in Texas during the 1830s. The Americans folded in 1942, while Tex's Rangers remain.

On the brink again. Tough one tonight at MSG. Backs to the wall with the elimination game this Tuesday in Tampax Bay!! Hopefully the King can continue his "back against the wall" ways. Hopefully. Just not ready for our hockey season to end just yet. Looking forward to game 7 on Friday, if, of course, there is a game 7. Keeping the faith for now. GO BLUE!!
