Tex Rickard was awarded an NHL franchise in 1926 to compete with the now-long-forgotten New York Americans. The team was immediately dubbed "Tex's Rangers", and the nickname stuck. Rickard managed to get future legendary Toronto Maple Leafs coach Conn Smythe to assemble the team, but Smythe had a falling-out with management and was let go in favor of Lester Patrick before the first season. The new team turned out to be a winner--in their first season, the Rangers won the American Division, but lost to the Boston Bruins in the playoffs.
The Rangers won the Stanley Cup over the now long-defunct Montreal Maroons in only their second year in business, but it was not without some desperation: Coach Patrick had to be their goaltender for two periods of game two of the finals after regular goalie Lorne Chabot was injured.

After a finals loss in 1929 and a few mediocre seasons in the early 1930s, the Rangers defeated the Toronto Maple Leafs to win their second Stanley Cup in 1933, led by brothers Bill and Bun Cook on the wings, and Frank Boucher in centre. The Rangers would spend the rest of the 1930s playing mainly .500 hockey until they won the Cup again in 1940 (over the Maple Leafs), when Patrick stepped down and handed the reins to Frank Boucher.
New York Rangers logo (used 1935-1948)The Rangers would collapse by the mid-1940s, losing games by as much as 15-0 and having one goaltender with a 6.20 goals-against average. They would miss the playoffs for five consecutive seasons before squeaking into the fourth and final playoff spot in 1948. They lost the first round and would miss the playoffs again in 1949. In the 1950 finals the Rangers were forced to play all of their games on the road (home games in Toronto) while the circus was at the Garden. They would end up losing to the Detroit Red Wings in overtime of the seventh game.

New York Rangers All Star Game Tickets
Still, the many playoff failures convinced Rangers fans that this was a manifestation of the Curse of 1940, which is said to have begun when the Rangers' management burnt the mortgage to Madison Square Garden in the bowl of the Stanley Cup after the 1940 victory, or to have been cast by Red Dutton following the folding of the New York Americans. Frustration was at its peak when the 1991-92 squad captured the President's Trophy, took a 2-1 series lead on the Pittsburgh Penguins, and then faltered in three straight (most observers note a Ron Francis slapshot from the blue line that eluded Mike Richter as the series' turning point) to the eventual Cup winners. The following year a 1-11 finish landed the Rangers in the Patrick Division cellar. Coach Roger Neilson did not finish out the season. The offseason hiring of controversial head coach Mike Keenan was criticized by many who pointed out Keenan's 0-3 record in the Finals.

Despite a 6-0 regular season record against New Jersey, the Devils took the Rangers to a full seven games. The series was highlighted by three dramatic multiple overtime games, of which the Rangers won two. Stephane Matteau scored both of those overtime goals, one of which ended Game 3 at 6:13 of the second overtime. Still, after the fifth game the Rangers trailed in the series 3-2 and faced elimination, prompting captain Mark Messier to boldly guarantee a victory in Game 6 at New Jersey. Halfway through the game, the Rangers trailed 2-0 before Messier setup Alexei Kovalev late in the second period. In what is now considered one of the greatest individual performances in sports history, Messier delivered a hat trick in the third period to give the Rangers a 4-2 win and send the series to a decisive seventh game. In that seventh game, a Brian Leetch goal midway through the second period stood until Valerie Zelepukin tied the game for the Devils by stuffing the puck under goaltender Mike Richter's pads with 7.7 seconds remaining in regulation. It appeared once again that the curse of 1940 would undo the Rangers.

Rangers NHL Hockey Playoffs Tickets
The 1998-99 Rangers pose with Gretzky after his last game.The Rangers continued to be Cup favorites in the mid-to-late 1990s, even landing an aging Wayne Gretzky, but they would fizzle out. Their 1994 stars were aging and many retired or dropped off in performance. After General Manager Neil Smith ran Messier out of town in the summer of 1997 and failed in a bid to replace him with Avalanche superstar Joe Sakic, the Rangers began a streak of seven seasons without making the playoffs.
In March 2000, Smith was fired along with head coach John Muckler, and that summer James Dolan hired Glen Sather to replace him. By 2001, the Rangers had landed a lot of star power. Theoren Fleury joined the Rangers after spending most of his career with the Calgary Flames. Eric Lindros joined the Rangers from the Philadelphia Flyers. They got Pavel Bure late in the 2001-02 season from the Florida Panthers. However, the Rangers still finished out of the playoffs despite having the league's highest payroll. Later years saw other stars such as Alexei Kovalev, Jaromir Jagr, Anson Carter and Bobby Holik added, but in 2002-03 and 2003-04, the team again missed the playoffs. Owners of the highest team payroll with numerous star players coupled with their consistent failure to make the post-season has earned the Rangers the honor of being the NHL's poster child for underachievers.

New York Rangers Stanley Cup Tickets
The Stanley Cup Finals pitted the Rangers against the upstart Vancouver Canucks, who were the seventh seed in the Western Conference. After dropping Game 1 in overtime 3-2, largely due to Canucks' goaltender Kirk McLean's 52 save performance, the Rangers won the next three games to take a commanding 3-1 series lead. The Rangers lost Game 5 in New York and then Game 6 in Vancouver forcing another seventh game at Madison Square Garden. The Rangers did not disappoint, using goals from Leetch, Graves, and Messier to seal a 3-2 victory and the Rangers first Cup in 54 years. Brian Leetch became the first American to win the Conn Smythe Trophy and Mark Messier became the first Rangers captain to hoist the Cup on Garden ice.

New York Rangers Hockey Playoffs Tickets
The post lock-out Rangers, under new head coach Tom Renney, have seen the team move away from the high priced veterans for recent years towards a group of young talented players such as Petr Prucha, Dominic Moore and Blair Betts but the focus of the team remains superstar Jaromir Jagr. The Rangers were largely expected to struggle during 2005/06 but behind stellar performances by Swedish rookie goalie Henrik Lundqvist, surprising Czech rookie Petr Průcha, Martin Straka, and Jagr, the Rangers are currently at the top of the Atlantic Division with fewer than 10 games left, boasting their best record since 1993-94.

On March 29, 2006, Jaromir Jagr broke the Rangers' single season points record with a first period assist in a 5-1 win against the New York Islanders. The assist gave him 110 points on the season breaking Jean Ratelle's record. Less than two weeks later on April 8, 2006, Jagr scored his 53rd goal of the season against the Boston Bruins, breaking the team record previously held by Adam Graves. With four games to go, Jagr has 119 points and will look to add more in the final week of the season.
