Not exactly Rangers related but a great article at the Athletic, for those you have it, on the movie Slap Shot and the team/players that gave birth to the film

The wacky true story of the hockey team that inspired 'Slap Shot'
The movie echoed the real-life Johnstown Jets in part because many people who appeared in the film had a connection to the team.

Tomas Sandstrom was one of my favorites. I was bummed when he got traded to LA.
I always wondered why Jason Doig did not work out for the Rangers. Always thought he had potential.

I want Hags back, kreibanajad could use his blazing speed and tenacious forecheck.
(Yes, i am aware he is too old now)

Dane Byers had some good years with Hartford. I'm shocked he never became a 4th line tough guy.

I forget wife and I were talking about old games we went to and how I always like the guys nobody else does but I will never live down when we were at a have and one of "my guys" scored and when I jumped up to celebrate I may have elbowed her in the head. And then instead of checking on her, I celebrated with other fans.
That random Ranger was none other, then #20, Freddy Sjöström

IMHO, Torts was too quick to reject the depth guys he inherited, Freddy and Betts and Korpi

Very sad news
Chris Simon, a Stanley Cup winner with the Colorado Avalanche, dead at 52 | TSN
Stanley Cup-winning winger Chris Simon has died at the age of 52, the NHL Players' Association confirmed on Tuesday. A native of Wawa, Ont., Simon spent 15 seasons in the National Hockey League and was a member of the Colorado Avalanche’s 1996 championship team.

Really shocked and disturbing that the Rangers didn't not post anything about Chris Simon death on their Twitter or Rangers website
RIP Chris Simon
RIP Chris Simon

He was one of the pleasant surprises during a God awful year of Rangers hockey in 03-04. He knew how to throw down and was a decent offensive contributor for a 4th liner. Also gave us the best return from the 04 trade purge (Blair Betts). RIP Chris. Saddened to read this.

More often than not when an ex-Rangers player dies they don't. A lot of players from the 50's, 60's, 70's and 80's are at an age where their ages are in the kind of range where it's almost normal when a player does pass. Simon is a bit early for it though shit happens. I'm in my 60's and I've known plenty of people who have died younger than me. Sometimes quite a bit younger than my age now. There have been maybe 30 or so Ranger players that I've seen play as Rangers since I started following the Rangers in 1971-72 that are gone now. It's not that abnormal at least for me.

Joel Lundqvist question, anyone know why Joel Lundqvist went back to Sweden and never tried to make a comeback to the NHL? I always thought he’d be a 3rd liner in the NHL at some point. He was not awful for Dallas. It would have been a nice story to see Lundqvist brothers be teammates on the Rangers at some point.
