1954: The Rangers acquire Pete Conacher and Bill Gadsby from the Chicago Blackhawks in exchange for Rich Lamoureux, Nick Mickoski and Allan Stanley.
1977: Rod Gilbert plays in his final NHL game, a 6-3 victory for the New York Rangers against the Colorado Rockies at Madison Square Garden.
Gilbert retires as the Rangers leader in goals (406) and points (1,021), and is elected to the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1982.
2010: The Rangers acquire Stu Bickel from the Anaheim Ducks in exchange for Nigel Williams.
2014: New York Rangers goaltender Henrik Lundqvist shuts out Montreal 5-0 at Madison Square Garden, four days after his backup, Cam Talbot, defeats the Philadelphia Flyers 2-0.
It's the first time the Rangers get back-to-back shutouts from different goaltenders since Wayne Thomas wins 4-0 at the St. Louis Blues on Nov. 30, 1977, and John Davidson wins 4-0 at the Minnesota North Stars three days later.
