...the late Neilson had three and half years of great regular season success with the Rangers including a Presidents Trophy in 1991-92. Unfortunately he couldn't get the Blueshirts out of the second round of the playoffs and was fired during the 1992-93 season. And we all know how that worked out the next season.

21 years ago, Today I got my first bloody nose from a plastic hockey puck.
11 months old I threw the Puck at a wall and it came back and hit me.
Only reason I know this? my parents have it filmed onto an old Bata Cassette.
Doesn't Esposito own a team now? or is it another Esposito? I'm petty sure it's the Same Esposito.
he was part of the original ownership of the lightning i think.
