Franchise History
The franchise was given to Tex Rickard in 1926 with the original name the "New York Americans". However, they quickly became known as "Tex's Rangers" and the name just stuck. In only their second year, the team won the best of five series 3 games to 2 to win the Stanley Cup. This was a great victory for the team. Fast-forward to the establishment of the NHL. In 1968 the team moved venues to Madison Square Garden and made the playoffs for the first time in five years. In the mid-1970s, hockey legend Phil Esposito joined the team. The team was very competitive throughout the 1970s and 1980s, although they never did win the Stanley cup. In the 1990s they managed to get hockey legend Wayne Gretzky to join the team. They managed to pull of a Stanley Cup victory in 1994, but the stars of the team were aging and needed to be replaced with younger players.
