Living Off Someone Else\

So all over the New York Ranger Universe, Ranger fans got a chance to relive that happy moment of the Rangers finally putting an end to curse of 1940 by defeating the Vancouver Canucks in Game 7 2-1 and win the Stanley Cup. Not going to begrudge any Ranger fan who enjoyed their chance to revisit that moment in time.

But can I ask exactly how long are Ranger fans are going to be willing to let Cablevision live off a cup that they have exactly zero to with? After 15 years it is time to put 1994 away and not allow Cablevision to live off this cup win.

Really if you look at things then you see that what our "friends" at MSG have done is trade "1940" for "1994". 15 years is too long a time for a franchise to be living in the past.

Really think about the last 15 years for a second because there is another 15 year anniversary coming up that I really doubt any Ranger, Knick or New York sports fan period will want to celebrate. I am talking about the 15th anniversary of Cablevision partnering with ITT to purchase Madison Square Garden.
