OT: Let's Remember Some Guys

[Crease]

Mike Dunham's goalie equipment painted red/white/blue because he didn't want to break in new gear midseason.

Who can forget Bernie Nicholls? He was our big-splash trade, marking the start of a new competitive era, only to be traded away for an even bigger fish named Mark Messier.

 

[Thirty One]

Enver Lisin!

Aaron Voros
Poti, you nerd
Norm Maciver

And of course, who could forget...

Anyone remember Dustin Rose?

Anyone remember Dustin Rose?

He was a mid-carder in the Mid-South Atlantic Wrestling Federation right?

 

[Hi ImHFNYR]

Cant believe I didn't see the only 1st overall pick we drafted...Mikhail pashnin.

Dude was killin it in one camp.

Dale weise. Liked him and byers a lot as potential 3rd/4th line leaders.

Erik christiansen. Lol. Just the perfect representation of "we simply cannot find a top of the line center"

Winter classic hero Mike rupp.

Scott stacjer and mac skapski.

Thought one would be what cam talbot became

 

[will1066]

Josh Jooris wore the same number as Wojtek Wolski.

 

[EpicDing]

James Sheppard?

Miika Wiikman? He's playing in the UK now.

Jeff Halpern?

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

James Sheppard?

Miika Wiikman? He's playing in the UK now.

Jeff Halpern?

Jeff Woywitka, Darroll Powe

 

[will1066]

Woywitka was so hyped.

88-89 saw both Brian Mullen and Brian Lawton

 

[EpicDing]

Jeff Woywitka, Darroll Powe

Paul Carey is gonna be like them soon if not already.

 

[Bob Richards]

Darroll Powe went his entire (38 game) Rangers tenure without registering a point.

This thread needs more Jeffs.

Jeff Nielsen

 

[bobbop]

Who remembers Jeff Toms? Until 2016, he was the last Ranger claimed off waivers to record a hattrick.

I was at that game in LA! Breathtaking.

 

[Levitate]

ryan malone baby

 

[True Blue]

Christian Dube is the franchise.

Wasn't he put on a horse diet or something like that?

 

[NCRanger]

This thread needs more Jeffs.

Jeff Nielsen

Jeff Bloemberg.

Dude took an asswhipping from some Islander goons in a playoff game in 1990, because he publically stated he wouldn't fight due to his Christian beliefs.

Lost any shred of respect I may have had for Al Arbour then and there, because he instructed the Islanders to jump Bloemberg.

 

[NASTY]

Corey Potter and Brian Fahey
Loved Nik Zherdev

 

[SingnBluesOnBroadway]

This thread needs more Jeffs.

Jeff Nielsen

Jeff Taffe
Jeff Bloemberg
Jeff Brown

 

[Vinny DeAngelo]

James Sheppard?

Miika Wiikman? He's playing in the UK now.

Jeff Halpern?

I remember when we signed him Joe M was so hyped because he was the best faceoff man the year before lol

 

[duhmetreE]

I was watching some Ryan Hollweg vids... I wonder why he's not in the NHL ... I miss him for some odd reason

 

[cwede]

How about these guys:
Dean Kennedy
Miro Horava
Ken Hammond

they all played D for '88-89 NYR, and all wore #6
1988-89 New York Rangers Roster and Statistics | Hockey-Reference.com

they were so indistinguishable that a Hockey News front page cover story on Kennedy used a picture of Hammond!

Los Angeles Kings Legends: Dean Kennedy
"In a cover story on the Feb. 3, 1989 issue of The Hockey News, Kennedy earned the dubious honor of being the NHL's "most average defenseman" as a result of a NHL average statistics analysis. Unfortunately, The Hockey News goofed in picking Kennedy's photo for the cover, accidentally choosing a photo of Ken Hammond."

 

[Bleed Ranger Blue]

Jed Ortmeyer

Ya know, Jed Ortmeyer is somewhat of a punchline nowadays, but that Hollweg/Betts/Ortmeyer line was one of my favorite things post-lockout. Those guys, none of which had what you'd call NHL talent, went balls to the walls every shift. It was very refreshing after watching almost a decade full of laziness.

Jeff Taffe
Jeff Bloemberg
Jeff Brown

Jeff Toms

Glen Featherstone and Mark Janssens

 

[Thirty One]

Jeff Halpern! I don't think there's ever been a case of this board gushing over a player's offensive abilities for a player who had 1 assist in 30 games quite like him before.
