Madison Square Garden: New York Rangers NHL Game

The Rangers, one of the Original Six NHL teams, were founded in 1926 by Tex Rickard. According to legend, the New York media nicknamed the team “Tex's Rangers,” a play on the famed law enforcers, the Texas Rangers.

Located in the heart of Manhattan and named for President James Madison, Madison Square Garden opened in 1968 and is among the most-booked venues in the world.

The arena, which sits atop Penn Station, is the oldest venue in the NHL. Considered “the world’s most famous arena,” MSG is also the home court for the New York Knicks.
