It’s been 25 years since Mark Messier made the guarantee. Twenty-five years since Stephane Matteau scored one of the most famous goals in New York Rangers history. Twenty-five years since Sam Rosen uttered the most famous words of his career, “this one will last a lifetime.”
Twenty-five years since Ranger fans knew what it was like to be Stanley Cup champions.
Members of the Rangers’ 1994 championship team came together for a big celebration Friday night at the Garden and you can’t help but think of how close the Rangers have come to lifting their first Cup since that 1994 team.
