Erik Christensen (2009-2012)
Today in NYR History 12/17:
1935: Five original New York Rangers each play in his 500th NHL game.
Bill Cook, Bun Cook, Frank Boucher, Ching Johnson and Murray Murdoch reach the milestone when the Rangers and Montreal Canadiens skate to a 1-1 tie at Madison Square Garden.
2008: Rangers defenseman Michal Rozsival scores on a penalty shot in the second period, and then scores in overtime to give New York a 3-2 victory against the Los Angeles Kings at Staples Center.
Rozsival becomes the second player since the NHL re institutes overtime in 1983 to score on a penalty shot before winning the game with an overtime goal.
2011: Brad Richards scores the game-winning goal with 0.1 seconds remaining in regulation, giving the Rangers a 3-2 victory over the Phoenix Coyotes.
