Road to Victory The 1994 New York Rangers Story

[arkhllraiser]

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.

EVERY hockey fan should watch this video. No matter your fandom, this is an outstanding piece of hockey history.

My uncle was a paramedic for MSG during that time and he snuck my Grandma in an ambulance into MSG for game 7 gainst the Devils, no seat, so she just stood behind The net, was behind the net when Matteau scored. Got a picture with the cup in the next round once again snuck into MSG, LOVE THE RANGERS #LGR

Devils fans since 1985. This was one of the best sports documentaries I’ve ever watched. ‘90s NHL was awesome.

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.

when i saw 2 hr long vid, i said, who in their right mind would waste 2 hrs of their day watching something that happened 23 yrs ago. Well, i started watching and could not stop. i ended up watching it all. It was so interesting, and i'm from MTL and not a NYR fan. but it brought back good memories.

As a Flyer fan of 50 years, I enjoyed this as a hockey fan. Very well done.

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🔴⚪️🔵

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

So happy to see this on YouTube 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 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

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!

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

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.

23 years later and I still get goosebumps.

One of the best made hockey docs ever. Exceptional.
