My late father was a New York Ranger fan since the age of 13. He grew up on the east side and fell in love with hockey at that age and he just follow the Rangers year after year until 1968 when he bought two season tickets at the Garden to his beloved blue shirts. He had those seats until2020 when you can no longer physically go down into the City and pass them on to my brother-in-law. He has been honored at Center Ice as a 50-year plus season ticket holder and I can tell you other than marrying my mother and the birth of my sister and myself the Rangers winning the Stanley Cup in 94 was one of the greatest moments in his life. I watch these videos and I think how much I love him, he brought me to so many games I can't even begin to count. And he finally saw his cup in 94 after telling me several times we would have won it in the early 70s except for a guy who wore number 4 for the Bruins , Bobby Orr.

My dad, brother and I were long-time fans: my late father since about the 1940's; my brother since about 1970; me since about 1976. My dad and I were on the phone immediately after the 1994 win and we just laughed and laughed. We had moved from Brooklyn to Huntington, L.I. when I was 4. I grew up a city boy in the burbs. I had suffered most of my young life under the shadow of the NY Islanders dynasty. My nearest redemption coming so, so close in 1979 only to be dashed by Montreal. I kind of lost my belief in the team for a while, but of course came back in maybe 4-5 years. Then came that glorious, sun-swept day. My favorite sign in the audience : "Now I can die in peace." EXACTLY how I felt. No other win is now necessary to always have my Gers in my heart. No other sporting event can match the anxiety of the near-fatal plays; none will ever bring such great relief; none will come within 10,000 miles of her majesty.

I help them to find apartment to rent in West Orange after he was called up from the farm team in upstate NY. I’m much older than him, but we became good friends and I was happy to see him becoming a successful NHL player. But boy oh boy!!!! Did he break my heart with 7 seconds remaining??!!! If you look again at the moment Stefan Matteau scored that famous overtime goal, he tried to get up from his knees to celebrate…. Valery was tripping him several times and I was laughing my a…s out. I called him next day and said “I hate you for that goal, but love you for that tripping on Matteau”. Matteau Matteau Matteau …. Oh what a wonderful feeling!!! Valery has won several Stanley Cups the following years with Devils and I had a chance to hold a cup in my hands, but it really felt strange as I was holding someone else’s million dollar check.

Well being from Minnesota, I was on the flip side of the whole situation from what the folks in Dallas were feeling in 1993-94. I was a North Stars fan and in April of 1993, the North Stars left town thanks to Norm Greed (he forever is a villain of the highest order in Minnesota lore). Without a team to support and not wanting to align with any of the Campbell Conference foes, I started following this 93-94 Rangers team, mostly because of Mark Messier (but also because I liked Mike Richter and Brian Leetch). I became a Rangers fan in that 1993-94 season and remain so to this day even though they have not won another Cup. That said, I am glad for the sake of the hockey diehards in Minnesota that the Minnesota Wild are here now. But nothing replaces the Rangers for me personally. Also, I DID root for the Dallas Stars to win that Stanley Cup in 1999. I still wish the best for the Stars. It isn't Dallas' fault Norm Greed did what he did. Well maybe just a little.

They were the two worst teams in hockey, that year, but I loved the sport and adopted the players as my own. Andy Bathgate, Dean Prentice, Gump, Harry, Louie Fontinato et al, I will always love them all.

It took a Champion like Mark Messier to come here and display a the heart and mental toughness to win a Championship. His guarantee and hat trick vs the Devils showed what a true champion is. It filtered through the rest of the team and culminated in the greatest win in Rangers History.

My late father was a New York Ranger fan since the age of 13. He grew up on the east side and fell in love with hockey at that age and he just follow the Rangers year after year until 1968 when he bought two season tickets at the Garden to his beloved blue shirts. He had those seats until2020 when you can no longer physically go down into the City and pass them on to my brother-in-law. He has been honored at Center Ice as a 50-year plus season ticket holder and I can tell you other than marrying my mother and the birth of my sister and myself the Rangers winning the Stanley Cup in 94 was one of the greatest moments in his life. I watch these videos and I think how much I love him, he brought me to so many games I can't even begin to count. And he finally saw his cup in 94 after telling me several times we would have won it in the early 70s except for a guy who wore number 4 for the Bruins , Bobby Orr.
This got me choked up. Big thanks to our fathers =)

(2014 Finals), "One of the greatest tragedies of his life sometimes dies in a man while he lives." kzhead.info/sun/pdehYdF7a4ypa3k/bejne.html
@@sanjayiyer489 actually, the Canuck fans rioted. The Ranger fans, on the other hand, took it with grace and just moved on with their lives.
Same here! That year I was 13 and introduced to hockey, now, at 40, I’m a manager at an ice rink and still play hockey today. I cried when they won and I definitely get all choked up 26 years later.
Leaf fan here..... We still know how this feels in 2022! 55 years and counting! Go Leafs Go!!!
The leafs will get one soon, they have the team to do it. Matthews a beast.
Not a leafs fan but that would be so cool to watch. Especially to see Matthews, Marner, and Nylander just kill all the stupid criticism they’ve gotten over the years
No Leafs blow!!! 🍃 Sabres first!!!
You seem to be following the pattern you’re supposed to win you get beat you’ll come back you’ll win in the next few years
Leafs haven't moved to Quebec yet? They got nothing in Toronto.
Saddest story a friend who was a Ranger fan since the 1960s was thrilled to see the Rangers win the Cup and commented,” my life is now complete.” He would die in an accident 3 weeks later. RIP AC
Rest in Peace AC
RIP AC, God Bless.
Rest in peace ac
Not true.

Great upload! Been a Rangers fan since 72' Adam Graves lived on my street in Toronto. I remember playing road hockey with him and skating on the pond behind my house and at Cliffwood park with him, he was just so much better than all of us. I cried on that day when the cup was won and was proud of Adam! It was the best Stanley cup ever!! Messier is a legend! That team was special.
That is sooo cool about u and Adam. Can't imagine. Ive met him several times and just the nicest most sincere human being u could ever meet. Lucky u.
23 years later and I still get goosebumps.
Game 6 in New Jersey was the greatest game in Ranger History and maybe the greatest game in Hockey History! Oh yeah game 7 was pretty good too. It's been 30 years and I can still hear it ringing in my head, Matteau - Matteau - Matteau
LETS GO RANGERS!!! This gives me chills. Wasn’t alive to see it but I know I’ll be alive for another cup to come. LGR🔴⚪️🔵
As a Flyer fan of 50 years, I enjoyed this as a hockey fan. Very well done.
One of the best made hockey docs ever. Exceptional.
Agreed.
Very true. Hell I'm a Blackhawks fan and I have watched this 3 times.
Held a silver dollar all game gave the silver dollar to my son
My hands hit my ceiling and the ceiling is eight feet

Oh God!! The Chief!!! There wasn’t a game at The Garden where we wouldn’t see him walking around. Then there was Debbie with her epic poetic banners!
My dad, brother and I were long-time fans: my late father since about the 1940's; my brother since about 1970; me since about 1976. My dad and I were on the phone immediately after the 1994 win and we just laughed and laughed. We had moved from Brooklyn to Huntington, L.I. when I was 4. I grew up a city boy in the burbs. I had suffered most of my young life under the shadow of the NY Islanders dynasty. My nearest redemption coming so, so close in 1979 only to be dashed by Montreal. I kind of lost my belief in the team for a while, but of course came back in maybe 4-5 years. Then came that glorious, sun-swept day. My favorite sign in the audience : "Now I can die in peace." EXACTLY how I felt. No other win is now necessary to always have my Gers in my heart. No other sporting event can match the anxiety of the near-fatal plays; none will ever bring such great relief; none will come within 10,000 miles of her majesty.
Proud to say I marched in that Cup parade. My roller hockey league was able to get a pass and we were on the street walking down Broadway. It's almost impossible to put into words the jolt of energy, of utter awe, that crowd noise provided. The happiness was so palpable. I help up a sign that said "What now Islander fans?" The people on the sidewalk roared. This was a great documentary, the first time I've seen it. One of the greatest moments of my life.
Gross! New York is just gross!
I was there and found it to be filthy, gross and absolutely disgusting. There were junkies begging and pigeon shit everywhere! How cheap to have a parade during working hours. All the people that were there were basically taking a break from their jobs in that area. That’s why they don’t do NY parades on weekends. Nobody would go into that gross ass area if they’re not getting paid to do so. The streets are dirty and there’s nothing at all in that area for anyone to see. Nothing! Canyon for Yankees is what it should be called. Other then the Yankees NY teams flat out suck!
You’re a flat out liar!
It was you who held, "Islander fans, now what?" sign? Lol, legend. 👍🏻
NY Rangers 1994: we won the Cup Ny Islanders : Hold my beer 1980 Ny Islanders: Hold my beer 1981 Ny Islanders: Hold my beer 1982 Ny Islanders: Hold my beer 1983
I put this on as I was working on my sound card and I needed something to play while I tested settings...I started to watch it...and could not stop. This had all the heartaches any joy that any true fan has had to endure when following their sports team. Talking to the sports writers, players, coaches, fans, etc...just was really a joy to watch. I now will find something hopefully boring to contnue to work on my soundcard! lol
I was a young man in the military serving in Korea when this happened. I remember watching games while eating breakfast in the chow hall. Everyone thought i was nuts during the NJ series. I was jumping around slinging hash browns over everyone hollering , and laughing. I hope that I can witness another sporting event that can even come close to the excitement that the 93-94 season had.
ty for your service and a great story
I'm a Leafs fan. All my life. I'd give anything to win that damned cup. Rangers fans yeah it's 25 years ago now, but I'd give anything to have shared one cup with my dad. He was THE GREATEST Leafs fan of all time, believe me. 35 years we had season tickets. I watched the Leafs get eliminated by Boston, again, with him last month. His last game it turns out. He died three days later.
As a leaf fan too I hope the leafs have their own 1994 year too🙏
30 years later and it's time to do it again in 2024! LGR!!!!!
This all started with me telling my wife that I'm ready to go out and her replying 'Okay hun, I'll just need a sec'. Then me opening my laptop and the youtube algorithm giving me this amazing 100 minute experience. Thank you! From a Jets fan (since -91)
In 1992 my very good friend Mark Gentler (NHL scouter - agent for Russian players at that time. I am a Russian also and a big Rangers fan) introduced to me Valery Zelepuhin and his wife Stella. I help them to find apartment to rent in West Orange after he was called up from the farm team in upstate NY. I’m much older than him, but we became good friends and I was happy to see him becoming a successful NHL player. But boy oh boy!!!! Did he break my heart with 7 seconds remaining??!!! If you look again at the moment Stefan Matteau scored that famous overtime goal, he tried to get up from his knees to celebrate…. Valery was tripping him several times and I was laughing my a…s out. I called him next day and said “I hate you for that goal, but love you for that tripping on Matteau”. Matteau Matteau Matteau …. Oh what a wonderful feeling!!! Valery has won several Stanley Cups the following years with Devils and I had a chance to hold a cup in my hands, but it really felt strange as I was holding someone else’s million dollar check. It’s like who cares?
As a Blues fan I completely understand every part, every emotion these fans felt in this video!!!!!
36 year old Bruins fan and the ‘94 Final is my favorite.
Remembering this in 94 ,collecting my winnings from my home boys and shedding a tear.I waited since their were six in the league and in black and white
I had season tickets that year with my dad. It was the best year of my life. If I could relive one day with my dad it would be the day our beloved Rangers won the Stanley Cup
So happy for both of u
@@marcweissman5752 we took a picture of the cup at grand central
We took a picture of the cup when they won in grand central I got a shock when I touched the cup
@@joevassilatos3712 Sweet!! That musta been awesome, shock n all! Lol. I've got 2 pics with Cup from having been to the HOF up in Toronto. No shock however lol other than disbelief that NYR finally got their names on it again 😉
I remember that. The seven games of the final were even shown live overseas here in Europe. I've been obsessed with hockey ever since. In my humble opinion it was the best SCfinal. What a brilliant team these Rangers were and they had a truly worthy opponent in the Canucks. Btw: The jerseys looked so much better back then and were of great quality 😉
Insane series. Never gets old.
Not a rangers fan by any means, a penguins fan actually. But my God, if this isn’t the greatest single season story ever told, I don’t know what is.
As a Bruins fan, I’ve always been most impressed with and envious of Ranger fans. Very loyal group and still support when it’s a struggle. They don’t need to trick out MSG to pander to pink hats like our home and they’ve always travelled in numbers with dignity regardless of standings. My brother is a big fan and they’re no doubt my second team. I watched every game of this final at my buds house in Mass like a ritual with some beers and a nice J, completely enthralled.
The summer of 94...I was only 12, but it was such an incredible time.
Mark Messier deserved to make the salary he made in that NHL trade he was one of the greatest leaders I've ever seen on an NHL Hockey 🏒 team I was never really an Oilers fan but you had to admire his leadership and skill to lead his team's it's really outstanding to win 6 Stanley Cups 5 with the Edmonton Oilers and a 6th with The New York Rangers what an outstanding career but it takes hard work and dedication to become a success in any sport Mark Messier was all those things and a true leader I'm an NHL fan.
ALL of these Stanley Cup pieces are excellent! Every year, every team from 94' to last season with Vegas. Wonderful works and so much fun to revisit. But, this one is by far THE BEST!
So happy to see this on KZhead since so many fans I know have been asking about it. Cannot begin to tell you what an honor and privilege it was to be a part of this. :)
I remember that playoff run like it was yesterday....i was at game 5 of the ECF and the train ride back to NJ was like a funeral procession, i ended up going to 5 total playoff games in 94, had season tiks from 01-11 and gave them up due to reno and increasing prices, was a hell of a ride, am hoping for another one in the near future
Marc Freakin' Weismann!
Marc Weissman what was it like?
You come across very likable unlike that tool. Anthony Clinique or whatever his name is lmao
@@cspike9061 lol
I was born in 1990, the best day of my lifetime is the only Rangers playoff game I went to, I was 3 going to game 7. I was a die heart Rangers fan. I screamed when they won.
Did you catch yourself cheering LETS GO REUNITED OILERS!
Why are hating on us so much? Shouldn't you be hating on the Flames or something?
This brings back so many memories for me!!!. I had 100 heart attacks watching this series,and I see I wasn't the only one!!! I will always love this team
I was at yankee stadium for game 6 at the devils. there was a rain delay during the game, everyone was under cover. then all of a sudden, the whole stadium erupts. everyone gets the news of messier hat trick. It was awesome
One of my all time favorite documentaries. Always watch it during playoffs. Rangers work hard and take it age by game!!!! #LGR
I know this sounds random but... I became a hockey fan in 94. I'm from Dallas and just fell in love with The Stars instantly. After The Stars were knocked out the 1994 playoffs... I heard about how long it had been for the New York Rangers. That Stanley Cup Finals series was unreal. The Canucks and The Rangers going at it like 2 heavyweights. All 7 games. Besides The Stars moving to Dallas from Minnesota. This is what made me love The NHL... Thanks for posting.
@Shelby Shoup Arrested For Crack lol you're a dick.
Im from san antonio and its crazy but minus the falling in love with the stars i became a fan the year before a little bit when the kings were playing the leafs then the next year i watched the whole playoffs and thought it was amazing. 50 years and new york was electric. I have not seen many things like that since.
I echo your comment exactly. The Dallas Stars, NHL '94, and the Rangers ending a 54 year-old curse is what made me a hockey fan for life.
That’s when I became a hockey fan too. I’m from Boston and back in 94 I was 11 years old and I was the biggest Rangers fan ! Obviously a Bruins fan too. But I wanted the rangers to get the cup back then.
Well being from Minnesota, I was on the flip side of the whole situation from what the folks in Dallas were feeling in 1993-94. I was a North Stars fan and in April of 1993, the North Stars left town thanks to Norm Greed (he forever is a villain of the highest order in Minnesota lore). Without a team to support and not wanting to align with any of the Campbell Conference foes, I started following this 93-94 Rangers team, mostly because of Mark Messier (but also because I liked Mike Richter and Brian Leetch). I became a Rangers fan in that 1993-94 season and remain so to this day even though they have not won another Cup. That said, I am glad for the sake of the hockey diehards in Minnesota that the Minnesota Wild are here now. But nothing replaces the Rangers for me personally. Also, I DID root for the Dallas Stars to win that Stanley Cup in 1999. I still wish the best for the Stars. It isn't Dallas' fault Norm Greed did what he did. Well maybe just a little.
The rangers had 54 years of waiting. Leafs fans be patient 52 years and counting 😞😞
Zibbie 17 yup we are on 44
1967=2021 will be 54 years without a cup for the leafs
David Areys. Zamboni legend, undefeated goalie in nhl. Won more games in Toronto then Luongo.
robert lenartowicz the last time the Leafs even MADE it to a Stanley Cup.
Stained Glass are you trying to tell me that we should have our 94 Cup victory stripped off? I’m just curious.
I was born in Brooklyn in 92' started watching in 97' One day I will have my own days of 94 one day COME ON RANGERS!
Glossed over how weird game 5 was. Canucks led 1-0 going I to the 3rd. Scored 2 to make it 3-0. Rangers score 3 to tie. Canucks score 3 more to win 6-3. 8 goals in the third period in game 5 of the finals--unbelievable.
As a VANCOUVER (heart 🏒 💔 broken) CANUCKS FAN I 26yrs later, say congrats 👏 Although this special look back coverage didn't cover everything like the line brawls the bruises black eye and harsh words just to get to the Finals each team went through. This was a great show and you New Yorkers are awesome NHL HOCKEY FANS People, your boys were the better team that night.. again congrats! I remember our CANUCKS RUN that year as we were enjoying our new super star Pavel Bure and how the entire team evolved seemingly over night to support keeping a super star. We are still battling for the cup, so many ups and downs... being a NHL HOME TEAM FAN is gut wrenching Rollercoaster... its all a blast though.
There were three Russians in the Rangers, but Russia was with Pavel for the Canucks
This is such a classy response from a Canucks fan and really warms my heart. I know you fans in Vancouver have been through a lot and I hope someday you guys finally get your cup celebration too.
Momesso had to restrained at the bench after the dirty hit by Messier on Linden
I'm not a Rangers fan, but this video made me feel good for their fan base. Definately Top 5 jersey of all time.
No matter how many times I watch this I always get chills #LGR #NYRFORLIFE
Game 6 and 7(RANGERS VS dEVILS) , probably the most INTENSE games in sporting history. They compare to the 1980 USA vs USSR!!! I have always been an Islanders fan, but what Mark Messier did in game 6 was EPIC!!!! You have admire what he did before and after game 6, no matter what team you follow. I will always have a special place in my heart for this one hockey series(Rangers vs Devils).The finals were anticlimatic, I knew the Rangers were gonna win. OH, one last thing: MATTEAU, MATTEAU, MATTEAU, STEPHAN MATTEAU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I really think there is no bigger sports story than that. The guarantee, the hat trick, the rivalry, the players, the town, the history, the Zelepukin goal, the Matteau goal. It doesn't get better than that.
I'm not a Rangers fan, but this just gave me shivers
I was puking
You had fever, go back to bed. lol
I’m a Habs fan too but I was happy for the Rangers when they won it back in 94 I remember vividly When I was a kid for us winning the cup was a tradition and I took it for granted. After 27 years of waiting for another one I will really appreciate the moment. Seeing the joy of the New York fans made me dream Excellent video. Thanks for sharing Let’s hope sooner than later
I'm not a Rangers fan but this was an incredible hockey moment. Then the NHL s--t the bed by having the work stoppage. It had the momentum to pass the NBA and really become a fixture...and blew it.
The best playoffs series of any sport, ever. NYR vs NJD, 94.
What a story by the Rangers that year. From a Caps fan
i will always remember how we were losing game six, down three games to two, by two goals after one period, and how, at that point, I gave up on them, in despair. Thank goodness they did not give up on themselves. But I will never forget how depressed I felt when all seemed lost.
How could you give up on a five time cup winning Dynasty Oilers team like that?
@@toddmurphy2589 this bum likes manure pit parade around the manure pile
1:01:20 I watched that game as a devil fan they both gave 110% it was a goalie game about 100 saves in game 7. both teams were Stanley cup material. 1994 rangers 4/3 then 95 devils sweep 4/0. 🏆
And then the rangers went on to play golf from 1998 to 2004 with Mess retiring broke after abusing cocaine. 1-2-3 SCOTTY!
Mess, coke? I think you're talking about Wade Redden...the only coke allegations regarding Mess were from some BS article from 2012.
Yeah right! Enjoy putting your head in the sand. Mess and Fhur were coke buddies in Edmonton and in NY it was Mess and Crackhead Theo.
That devils team gave the Rangers the very best 7 game series ever.... those two teams were epic in their battles. I love my blueshirts but Marty Brodeur is the greatest ever imo
@@toddmurphy2589 So your team got beat by a guy hopped up on coke? 🤣
It seemed like the curse was still there when the Devils tied that game with 7 seconds left
Ikr? Even Gary Thorne yelled 1940 is history! when Matteau scored and we hadn't even won the Cup yet. That's how huge that goal was.
I was 7-8 years old when I saw my first Ranger game at the Garden in the early 70's. My dad bought me an Eddie Giacomin poster that I had in my room until I moved out. I love Howie's quote about the end of the 3rd period of Game 7 of cup finals(1:26:02). It sums up what's it's like to a Ranger fan.
Been a Rangers fan since seeing my first game at the old Garden, December 26, 19 54, a tie with the Black Hawks. They were the two worst teams in hockey, that year, but I loved the sport and adopted the players as my own. Andy Bathgate, Dean Prentice, Gump, Harry, Louie Fontinato et al, I will always love them all.
Can’t compare to Marty, Stevens, Dano, Elias and Neidamayer. Your team sucks!
alking a lot of crap for being a fan of a team with only 3 Stanley Cups. lol
@@toddmurphy2589 Cant compare and expansion teams history to an Original 6 teams history
I remember this team...I was a young Dallas Stars fan but got caught up in the greatness of Mark M....legend
This truly was an amazing, magical ride which us Rangers fans will forever remember as long as we live. That being even if this cup did cost them dearly down the road, and was as if a new curse was placed on the franchise in return too. It was well worth it, but still though!
Mike Richter, Mark Messier, Esa Tikkanen, Adam Graves, Brian Leetch, Alex Kovalev, Sergei Zubov, Steve Larmer, Glenn Anderson, Brian Noonan, Stephane Matteau, Kevin Lowe, etc. What a team!
Luke Enno forgot Buekeboom
Аlexander Karpovtsev, Sergei Nemchinov
And one of the greatest tough guys ever, Joey Kocur.

@@ericavogardo4784 or, the New York Oiler Hawks. But hey, as Neil Smith said, "Well, who should I be trading for, then? Senators and Sharks?" Smith wanted to build a winner, so he went to the winning teams. Can't blame him.
I watched the Rangers win the cup that year with my buddy and his dad. I remember watching my buddies dad cry that night becuase his father had been a Rangers fan since 40's and had never got to see them win the cup. I'll always remember the tears that ran down his face. RANGERS HOCKEY FOREVER!
Very good and glad to see on KZhead, but there are some things I'm surprised they glossed over: Adam Graves' 50th goal Mike Richter's 20 game unbeaten streak Hosting All-Star Game weekend The 16 game unbeaten streak right after that bad Anaheim loss Steve Larmer's return to Chicago Gartner's 600th goal
I'd add: the absolute shellacking of NYI in the first round (outscoring 22-3); could've shown a few more McLean saves from game one (he was incredible); should've focussed more on the insane 3rd period of game five (8 goals scored in less than 13 minute span). Could've done with less of the local yokels fretting about their years of agony.
Agreed on some of these like Gravy 50 and Larmer PS. But Gartner was dealt so u can understand no 600. Luckily these are all captured on the Oh Baby video.
@@blackiestallion6109 Totally agree. After the Cup, sweeping the damn Isles was def the sweetest thing that spring. Def should've showed more of that.
@@marcweissman5752 6-0, 6-0, 5-1, 5-2. Worst week of Ron Hextall's life, and it put Al Arbour back into retirement. I lost money on that series.

Was awesome amazing season friend LGR LGR LGR LGR LGR we will be awesome amazing rest of this decade
Just thinking of that moment when the clock hit Zero in game 7, I was 10, oh my God!! I still get chills!! Thank you Rangers for giving us fans what you have!! Thank you Hockey Gods!! hahaha Greatest game on Earth !!
"Matteau, Matteau, Matteau." Greatest call of all time.

No I would say eclipsed by " Adam Henrique with a classique" for the 3 time, not once in 79 year, Cup Champions The DEVILS. Rangers. Strangers to Championships.
@@xstech9886 The NY Oilers were nothing without all the Oilers who were traded or sold to the 1 in 79 year Champion Strangers to Victory. Their owner went banktrump .
23 years later and we still haven't won yet again. At least when we do it'll be special like this one. I've been waiting to see Lundqvist hold the cup over his head and I can't wait to see it
Believe me I know exactly what you mean! I ALWAYS picture him raising it above his head! Hope he gets it this yr! He deserves it so much! I'll cry if it does happen!! Happy tears of course! LETS GO RANGERS!
Yeah right! Keep reading those little hockey articles in the Post and Daily News that brainwash no nothing hockey fans into believing their hyped up bs. Real Kings wear Rings! Nash is a big time bust! The great Captain stories stopped when the cup left town. Cam Talbot blows Hank away! Hockey is a joke in NY and it's why your bum funk covered arena was re fabricated and not given a new one like every sports team in NY got. Hitler saw the rangers win more cups then you!
Facts facts all facts is what you'll get from me kid. If you want lies you can listen to the MSG puppets tell you about the "great history" at MSG. A 54 year cup drought is not great. One cup in 78 years is not great. Two Knick championships since 1960 is not great. Morons like you think that a team has great history because they've been around a long time when in fact the Rangers have had a very poor history for a long time. The tree in my backyard is over 100 years old and I don't see anyone giving two shits about it. Old equals tired and washed up. The Rangers Suck ass!
RealHmac/Haydn never gonna happen, Lundqvist is in the down slide of his career, he has been regressing year after year since he took them to the finals.
Hank blows! Cam Talbot was the better goalie. Every player in the league is aware of Hanks very poor glove hand. The 2014 run was made possible by great defense and shot blocking. Love his highlite blinder behind the net last night for the Sharks fourth goal. ROTFLMAO.
I had never seen this video and it was absolutely great to relive that season. Like many of those guys I've been a Rangers fan since 1968. I lived through all the heartache and heartbreak with them losing to the Bruins in the '72 finals then besting the Islanders in '79 only to lose to the Canadians in the finals. It took a Champion like Mark Messier to come here and display a the heart and mental toughness to win a Championship. His guarantee and hat trick vs the Devils showed what a true champion is. It filtered through the rest of the team and culminated in the greatest win in Rangers History.
I def to this day believe like what John Dellapina said the Rangers/Devils series (and Game 7 of the Finals) was the greatest hockey I've ever seen played. The intensity, drama, rivalry all with a back & forth series that 3 games had to go to double OT. Just fantastic!
Goosebumps are real. Incredible video, this made me a Rangers fan as an 8 year old. I saw the game in the morning the day after since i live in Europe. Amazing
I remember watching this on TV always a flyers fan but love hockey. An amazing story in all of sports history
i was born in 99, now we need another so i can die in peace
I understand. I Missed them winning in 94 cause I had to go to bed. I was 11 and my parents were strict and wouldn't let me stay up late to watch it. Got to see them go to the Finals in 2014. Was a crushing blow when they didn't win the cup that year! HOPE THEY GET THEIR CHANCE THIS YR!! LETS GO RANGERS! #WeneedacupNOW!
RodStewartfan1 I'm hoping the boys can do it this year for Hank. After everything he has given to the league, the NYR organization and the fans, he deserves it more the. most in the league. The guy is a class act inside and out. And Hank starting to play like vintage Hank just at the right time, now if Hayes, Miller, krieder and stepan can start to get going we might just have that special chemistry and depth on the team to go all the way....LGR baby game 2 let's win this against Ottawa!!!
Hockey is at the very bottom of the sports chain in NY so don’t be surprised if you never see another Oilers cup in NY. Tennis and soccer are above hockey in NY.
Todd Murphy What fuckin planet do you live on?
You realize the rangers have cup winning imunity until 2048 meaning no fan of any team can complain until then
Great to see a star of another sport (NFL) like Boomer Esiason be even more passionate here about hockey and following the Rangers since he was a kid with his Dad.
Watching this again during Covid-19 and it brings back such awesome memories. Being 58. I'm in that sweet spot of having dealt with so many disappointments and horrific losses and so when the Cup was won, it really was a "I could die in peace" moment for any of us in our early 30's at the time. I gotta really good feeling that this current Ranger team has a few Cup runs in it during this new decade and it will be glorious for sure but not sure anything will ever top the '94 Cup win which broke the 54 year curse!. Lets Go Rangers!!
I'm a Canucks fan and I still remember it I was 19 now I'm 48 and still haven't won the CUP time fly's damn that was a good Stanley Cup Final so intense we should have beaten the rangers but we didn't and it Still hurts
This team actually got me interested in Hockey
Same
Me too, I was a freshman in high school. My buddy who is a die hard Rangers fan got me into hockey.
Oh cool. Some bots posting something absolutely unrelated to the video or comments trying to get us to go to the fucking link so we can be scumbags and hack our girlfriends Facebook. Seems legit 🤔
No other sport can produce this type of non-stop emotion. NHL is the best!
Great documentary! As a DucksFan, I always wanted to see Hank lead the mighty Rangers to a Stanley cup before his days seem scarce. Heads up Ranger fans, you'll get yours soon. Especially with guys like Chytil and Andersson coming up.
Well done. So awesome to think of this great team. Thanks 🙏 for sharing from Regina Saskatchewan
Awesome doc for ANY hockey fan! I'm fr Toronto but man, this ending put a frog in my throat! Very well done! Incredible hockey story!
Great documentary! Remember that year like yesterday! Canadian jets fan here
Who's watching today? 01.06.19 2019 - 1967 (Leafs) = 52 years since the last Stanley 😢! In 2 years it's ours 🏆!!! (54😉) 1994 to 2019 its already been 25 years... Wish that you Ranger fans don't have to wait so long again...
This aged well
@@lucasugafan4419 lol 😅!!! You are right!!! Looks like the Rangers are a better team!!! No more wishes from my side? Or maybe i should say, i hope it doesn't take so to win the Cup as the Cubbies 🤐!!!
Brings back so many memories of my childhood. One of the highlights of it for sure
These were one of the best 1:40 best spent hours! Let’s Go Rangers!!,
Amazing documentary, just makes me appreciate hockey even more. I'm not even a Rangers fan, but this is great to watch. Messier is a legend.
I love the flyers but this story gave me chills. What a remarkable run to the cup final. Flyers swept them the following year in the 95 playoffs.
Me Too and Same Thing I Hate The NY Rangers But I Still Enjoy Watching This!
Been bleeding blue since 1965, season subscriber my entire life, 1994 will last my entire lifetime, thanks again boys, for the millionth time !
Not a Rangers Fan I’m a Penguins fan but this story is really awesome they have the passion like we have and that’s awesome
Ranger fan since 1985, was only 17 in 94 but I thought I was gonna have a heart attack watching that 3rd period of Game 7 against the Canucks. What a year that was, still get goosebumps.
Ranger fan from Finland since 1990. Was a 12 year old kid when i watched the finals. Still the best playoffs ever. Nothing comes close to the thriller it was. Funny thing about this. Mess was my favorite player when i started watching, but he was still in Edmonton :) But he got traded and it was a match made in heaven for me :)
It was an amazing Cup run. And yea Messeir & Lowe, Tikkanen amongst others were brought in from Edmonton to help build a winner but we also had homegrown talent like Leetch, Richter, Zubov & Kovalev, all core members of that team. Great days that we'll never forget. Nobody can take that away.
11DNA11 I first loved Messeir in 84 when he helped dethrone the Islander dynasty. Him & Gretzky, 2 of the top 2 centers in the history of the game, both on that team in their prime. Crazy.
If you were a Rangers fan since 85 then you have no problem remembering the following players: Tony Granato, Tomas Sandstrom, Ulf Dahlen, Brian Mullin, Kelly Kisio, Troy Mallette, Corey Millen, Randy Moller, David Shaw, Mark Janssens, Paul Broten, Rob Zamuner, Kris King, Darren Turcotte, Joe Cirella, Jan Erixon, Per Djoos, Tony Amonte, Randy Gilhen, John VanBeisbrouck, Tim Kerr, Doug Weight, Mike Gartner, Tie Domi, John Ogrodnick, Ray Sheppard, Bernie Nicholls, Mark Hardy, Don Maloney, Brian Leetch and Mike Richter? They were your 1991-92 NY Rangers that Mess said "have great talent and can one day compete for the cup"! Only two (Leetch & Richter) out of all of those NYR players went on to win the cup in 1994. 1994 LETS GO REUNITED OILERS!
ghytgb - I remember all of those players like it was yesterday. Not sure if you are saying something negative, or just have a deadpan way of speaking...(?)
thanks mark messier for this amazing Stanley cup !!!
I thought I’ve seen it all related to the 94 Rangers. This was amazing. Thanks for posting.
This video will last a lifetime. I'm so blessed To have watched this game with my mom.🙏🏼
53:59 Messier looks like a kid on the Ice. Look at the joy he had. He was some player man.
Exactly! Incredible to think this man had already won FIVE Cups and yet ud swear this was his 1st from his reaction alone. Incredible
One of the best to ever play the game !!
watched it all the way through. no skipping. loved every minute of it. #LGR
me 2 and i am not even from NY, or a nyr fan. i didn't think i'd last 3 min watching, but i could not stop watching it. it was very well made. i just lost my whole day because of these 2 hrs.. well worth it.

Can you tell me why a team would dump players like Tony Amonte, Randy Gilhen, John VanBiesbrouck, Tim Kerr, Doug Weight, Mike Gartner, Tony Granato, Tomas Sandstrom, Ulf Dahlen, Brian Mullin, James Patrick, Bernie Nicholls, Mark Hardy, Kelly Kisio, Troy Mallette, Corey Millen, Randy Moller, David Shaw, Mike Janssens, Paul Broten, Rob Zamuner, Kris King, Darren Turcotte, Joe Cirella, Jan Erixon, Per Djoos, Tie Domi, John Ogrodnick, Ray Sheppard all within a three year time period? ----------- Answer: To get the Edmonton Oilers and Chicago Blackhawks to win the cup for N.Y. in 1994!
ghytgb Chara, Bertuzzi, Luongo, Berard, pick that ended up being Jason Spezza. And picking DiPietro as 1st. That's a great dump.
Mr Krider, Dubinsky, Blackburn. Who didn't love watching Crackhead Theo act like an ass! Let's get Avery back to score 3 goals in a season. Nice job at letting your real goalie (Cam Talbots's) get away to Edmonton. I guess the rangers still owe Edmonton since the 1994 OILERS REUNION IN NEW YORK. Old Gretzky helped you to the golf course too huh?! How did Higgins do? ROTFLMAO. BWAAAAAAAAAA HAAAAAAAAAAA HAAAAAAAAAAAAAA HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! 1-2-3 CUPS FOR KING MARTY! 1994 REUNITED OILERS!

i was 13 when they won the cup and it was amazing... I'm waiting for them to win again.. So i can partake in the fun. But they are and will always be my team! Let's go Rangers!
Mike Keenan got us a cup but he almost singled handedly sabotage the 94 season and ultimately forced Neil Smith to mortgage the future but we got the cup !!!
Alexander Arsenis That just shows u how tough he was, he’s nobody friend, just ur boss n that’s it
Jake Jones Keenan always had a hard on for wingers who weren't grinders to go along with their scoring talent. He basically forced Smith to give away Mike Gartner for a way past his prime Glenn Anderson. Do they win the CUP without Anderson, you tell me?
I still can't forgive him for shipping out Gartner. That guy deserved a title.
Joe T wen the Isles were dominating this season, Lou did nothin at the deadline, look what happened. Bet u the Rangers don’t win the cup without the trades, Keenan knew wat it took to win cause he’d done it before
@@slapshot68 I love that type of coaching only problem I had he was negotiating is way out of New York during the playoffs
I remember this team very well, Probably the playoffs that got me liking hockey the ups and downs were so dramatic, but the Rangers got lucky to avoid the expansion Florida Panthers in the first round Coached by Roger Nielson. I met Mike Keenan a few years later when he ran the Florida Panthers and told him that playoffs got me loving the game
Well I highly doubt the Panthers would have given the Rangers much trouble in the first round. Not that they could have done any worse than the Islanders, but am pretty sure there's no way the Rangers would have possibly lost to them though.
Doug Weight. 1 season. Hurricanes LEGEND. You won a cup against the Oilers. The team you spent the majority of your career with :D
I was born in 1960. Eddie Giacomin was my hero. Big hopes when Esposito came to town.
What this meant to my dad can’t be put into words he lived through all but 10 years of this drought he cried for the first time in my young life I saw my dad cry that cup meant everything to him
Kheff cheers!
