Eddie Olczyk of the New York Rangers
The 1994 Black Aces are immortals…which 2020 New York Rangers could earn that distinction?
Every season, a handful of lucky players get called up for the Stanley Cup Playoffs when NHL teams are allowed to expand their rosters, regardless of the salary cap. These players can practice with the team and can get into games if there are injuries. For the 1994 New York Rangers, there were five players who earned the distinction.
The Rangers’ Black Aces were Ed Olczyk, Nick Kypreos, Doug Lidster, Mike Hartman and Mike Hudson.
