The New York Rangers are not like other teams when discussing their greatest player. There are many teams that have very easy choices: the Edmonton Oilers had Wayne Gretzky, the Boston Bruins had Bobby Orr, the New Jersey Devils had Martin Brodeur.
The Rangers are bit different.
While there tends to be a typical choice for the “G.O.A.T.” of the organization, that being legendary defenseman Brian Leetch, many other fans and writers have gone as far to claim otherwise with choices such as Mark Messier and Rod Gilbert.
