What happened on February 2 in the history of the New York Rangers
February 2, 1969 was a record setting night for rookie defenseman Brad Park. In a 7-3 win over the Pittsburgh Penguins at Madison Square Garden, he became the first Rangers defenseman to get four assists in one game.
He still holds the record as the youngest Ranger defenseman to get four assists in a game at 20 years, 211 days. He was the youngest defenseman in NHL history to get four assists until that record was broken by Glen Wesley of the Bruins in 1988.
