Lets Go Rangers!!!

Yankee Stadium is getting closer to having the New York Rangers and the NHL close out the grand old place with an outdoor hockey contest. Spurred on by the popularity of this season's Penguins-Sabres match, the NHL has been working with Yankees officials to try to set something up for the Stadium.

"It's something we've spoken both to the Yankees and to the city about," NHL deputy commissioner Bill Daly told The News. "But it's not a done deal. There are still other possibilities and a lot of moving pieces."

Most insiders feel that the game should be played against a fellow "Original Six" team - Boston Bruins, Montreal Canadians, Chicago Black Hawks, Detroit Red Wings - to maximize the television ratings.
