Today in NYR History 9/26:
1958: Rangers call up Eddie Shack from Providence in the AHL and signed to his first NHL contract.
1988: The New York Rangers sign Guy Lafleur less than three weeks after the longtime Montreal Canadiens star is inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame and six days after he turns 37.
Lafleur, who's been retired since early in the 1984-85 season, soon joins Gordie Howe as the only players in NHL history to skate in a regular-season game after being admitted to the Hall. Lafleur finishes with 45 points (18 goals, 27 assists) in 67 games. He plays two more seasons with the Quebec Nordiques before retiring for good.
2011: Rangers and the Philadelphia Flyers hold a press conference to confirm their participation in the 2012 Winter Classic.
