New York Rangers: Ranking the Top 5 Rangers of All-Time

#5 – Adam Graves

After being acquired from Edmonton following the 1991 season, Graves went on to play in 770 games over the next 10 years in a Rangers uniform.  Known for his grit in front of the net and his uncanny ability to cash in on the dirty goal, Graves epitomizes what it means to put the ‘blue’ in blue-collar.  His hardworking, grind it out, protect your teammates at any cost attitude not only won over Rangers fans hearts, it also lead to New York hoisting his #9 jersey to the rafters and cementing his place in New York Rangers history.

With 280 goals and 507 points in his tenure with the team, Graves then team-record of 52 goals in their magical 1994 season is one to be revered by Rangers fans young and old.  While other players not on this list may have had a greater impact on the team statistically, Graves importance in the Rangers 1994 run to capturing their first Stanley Cup in 54 years simply cannot be understated.
