Ask a diehard New York Rangers fan to choose the best player in team history. Depending on who you ask, answers could range from Andy Bathgate, to Rod Gilbert, to Jean Ratelle, to Eddie Giacomin, to Brian Leetch, to Mark Messier, to Henrik Lundqvist.
But who is the greatest USA-born Ranger of all-time?
Here are my top five, based solely on their performance as, and value to, the Blueshirts:
#5 Nick Fotiu (Staten Island, New York)
Plenty of Rangers had more points than the 103 Fotiu posted in 455 games with the Blueshirts.
