18 years ago, the New York Rangers were preparing to report for their first day of training camp, a day for getting reacquainted and undergoing physicals. In just hours the world changed and ice hockey became the last thing on the minds of New Yorkers.
The Rangers have never forgotten that awful day. The organization makes sure that their young players are sure to visit the World Trade Center site so they have an understanding of what happened that day. It’s important considering that most of the players were toddlers that day and some were even in diapers.
