In our previous installment of the forgotten New York Rangers series, we looked at players with last names that end with D. Now, it’s time to go over the E’s.

None of the players on this list were superstars at the NHL level. A lot of them were primarily depth players or held roles in the lower parts of lineups. However, even with this being so, it is still easy for fans to forget that they once were a part of the Blueshirts.

The first player who will be discussed has become very popular after his professional hockey career, as he is currently an NHL head coach. We then will follow that up with a bottom-six forward who had himself a pretty lengthy career, but his time with the Rangers was pretty short. Next, we look at a defenseman who spent a few seasons with the team, but is more remembered for playing elsewhere. The last player on this list was another defenseman, but who also happens to hold a very interesting record.
