Rangers Raise “Regular season Champions” banner.

I’d argue a pretty big distinction between this and the Predators one. There is not an award for “regular season conference champions.” And to my knowledge, no team had ever hung a banner to that effect before.

Unlike the Rangers one, there is and has been an award or at least a title for this for nearly a century, many teams have previously hung this exact banner, and all 18 teams that have won the award recognizing the achievement since it was created have hung a banner.

So again, seems to be a “dump on the Rangers” thing. Unless we really want to stretch equivalency to the extreme/farcical.

Wings have the regular season conference championship banners too, including years where they also win the President's Trophy.

To me there is nothing wrong with throwing a banner up in to the rafters to acknowledge the success of a team through their history. Throwing up 3 of them for one team like the predators is pretty weird though.

Just having fun. It's actually funny because the Leafs are the ultimate Regular Season Darlings.

We call Mitch Marner a Regular Season Darling.

Please don't ban me for this.

Good luck on Saturday.

Love your team, I think you guys can go a long way.

What a non-issue to get angry about. It's a piece of cloth in a building that in order to see you basically need to be there and look up in a specific place.

The always classy Captain Trouba doesn’t seem thrilled about it

He’s just mad that there’s no Most Season Headshots banner

I think Patrick Roy needs to give the Rangers the Duchene treatment next time he visits the Garden.

Regular Season Champions

“Big cheer….Are you kidding me? What is THAT???”
