Today in NYR History September 11, 1993: 

The Rangers start the 1993-94 season with a two-game exhibition tournament in London, England, and defeat the Toronto Maple Leafs in the first game, 5-3.

The New York Rangers and Toronto Maple Leafs were chosen by the NHL to bring the sport to England for the second time, playing a two-game preseason series sponsored by French's Mustard.





Occurring near the start of training camp for both clubs, the games featured mostly proven NHLers and sure-fire prospects. Other players were left home to get in a full training camp.



The Rangers, who went on to win the Stanley Cup in the spring of 1994, got their season off to a good start by winning both games, which were played at Wembley Arena in London. The Rangers won the first game, 5-3, and took the second contest, 3-1.
