In the first four parts of our series on the greatest New York Rangers teams that almost won the Stanley Cup, we looked at the squads of 1950, 1971, 1972, and 1979. In part five of our series, we examine a Blueshirts unit that might have been the best in franchise history to fall short.
Loaded is one way to describe the 1991-92 Rangers. Stacked, dominant, skilled and tough also apply. It was easy to believe that these Blueshirts would finally bring back the Cup to Broadway, especially considering their regular-season performance of 50 wins, 25 losses and five ties for 105 points.
