New York Rangers 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs Betting
For the third consecutive season, the New York Rangers have surpassed the 106-point total in the regular season. Previously, it was Gerard Gallant behind the bench for the Broadway Blueshirts. But the Turk was fired after a first-round flameout in the 2023 Stanley Cup Playoffs, following a berth in the 2022 Eastern Conference Final. Peter Laviolette was a mercenary hired to replace Gallant. Laviolette has liked three different teams in the Stanley Cup Final, with a 2006 championship at Carolina. After a stellar regular season, Laviolette’s Rangers have the look of a potential champion.

New York Rangers History
Founded as an Original Six franchise in 1926, the Rangers have four Stanley Cup championships, with the last one occurring in 1994. But for many fans, the Glory Years were the late 1960s and early 1970s when the Rangers did everything but win the Stanley Cup. Rod Gilbert, Jean Ratelle, Vic Hadfield, and Eddie Giacomin lit up the Madison Square Garden marquee and made the 1972 Stanley Cup Final, losing to Bobby Orr and the Big Bad Boston Bruins in six games. New York had several other near misses in that special era of team history.
The greatest moment in Rangers’ history came in 1994 when they ended a 54-year curse by winning the Stanley Cup. In a thrilling seven game series, the Rangers first had to get past the New Jersey Devils in the Conference Final. That win over the Devils will forever be remembered for captain Mark Messier going full-throttle Joe Namath and guaranteeing that the Broadway Blueshirts would prevail. Subsequently, New York won another thrilling seven game series against the Vancouver Canucks in the Stanley Cup Final. The Rangers clinched the Stanley Cup in front of their home fans in an unforgettable moment in time. The days of “1940” chants by hated Islander fans were shut up forever with the title.
