A Book Review

The New York Rangers are one of the most storied franchises in NHL history. They have won four Stanley Cups, and they have produced some of the greatest players in the game, including Mark Messier, Wayne Gretzky, and Brian Leetch. In his new book, The Men and Moments That Made the New York Rangers, author John Halligan tells the story of the team's rich history, from its early days to the present day.

Halligan begins his book by discussing the team's early years, when it was known as the New York Americans. The Americans were one of the NHL's original six teams, and they won the Stanley Cup in 1928. However, the team folded in 1942 due to financial problems.

In 1946, a new team was founded in New York, and it took the name of the New York Rangers. The Rangers quickly became a competitive team, and they won the Stanley Cup in 1940. The team's success continued in the 1950s and 1960s, and they won two more Stanley Cups in 1950 and 1952.

The Rangers struggled in the 1970s and 1980s, but they regained their form in the 1990s. The team won the Stanley Cup in 1994, and they reached the Stanley Cup Finals in 1997 and 1999. The Rangers have continued to be a competitive team in the 21st century, and they won the Stanley Cup again in 2014.

Halligan's book is a comprehensive look at the New York Rangers' history. He provides detailed accounts of the team's greatest moments, and he also discusses the challenges that the team has faced over the years. The book is well-written and engaging, and it is a must-read for any fan of the team or hockey history.
