Nine hockey Hockey Hall of Famers and a total of 14 NHL greats will “skate” into Iona College in New Rochelle, New York on Saturday, September 25, when Rangers’ Stanley Cup hero Mark Messier, two-time Penguins Stanley Cup champion Mario Lemieux and “Mr. Hockey” Gordie Howe are among the ice icons convening Steiner Sports Fanfest IV.
