If you are 78 years old or younger, then what happened exactly a quarter of a century ago on this date of April 17 is truly a once-in-a-lifetime occurrence.
For 25 years ago Tuesday, the Rangers hired a head coach who would win the Stanley Cup.
No doubt you have heard of him, this fella by the name of Mike Keenan.
Just as you know the name of the only man alive to have hired a Cup-winner to coach the Blueshirts, this person called Neil Smith.
