In episode number 29 we look back at the career of one of the toughest, and courageous team players in the history of the Rangers. Winger George McPhee. During his 7 year career in the NHL and 5 with the Rangers from 1982-1989 McPhee displayed his toughness, courage, and willingness to do whatever it took to help his team succeed during the regular season and the playoffs. He has also established himself as one of the most successful Presidents and General Managers in the game today.

* Despite being only 5'9 and 170 lbs, McPhee earned the distinction as being one of the best fighters to ever compete in the NHL and quite possibly the best pound for pound fighter in Rangers history along with heavyweights Orland Kurtenbach, Nick Fotiu and Colton Orr.

* Signed with the Rangers as an undrafted free agent in 1982 after winning the Hobey Baker award as the top NCAA hockey player while playing for Bowling Green.

* Made his NHL debut during the Rangers 1983 playoff series against the Flyers. His ferocious and stellar play in that series helped the Rangers stun and defeat the Heavily favored Flyers to advance the Rangers to the next round of the playoffs. He also became only the second player to score three goals in a single Stanley Cup playoff prior to playing a regular-season game. 

* Scored 12 goals and led the team in penalty minutes despite playing in only 49 games as a Ranger during the 1984-85 season.

* Ended his playing career with the Devils in 1989.

* After stints as an executive with the Canucks and Islanders McPhee was named GM of the Capitals prior to the 1997-98 season. His career with the Capitals ran from 1997- 2014 which included seven Division championships and one Stanley Cup final.

* He is currently the President of the Las Vegas Golden Knights and earned the GM of the Year Award during the 2017-18 season for building a Stanley Cup Final team in their first season in the league.
