                      NEW YORK RANGERS--CHAMPIONS

                                 ______


                           HON. PETER T. KING

                              of new york

                    in the house of representatives

                        Wednesday, June 15, 1994

  Mr. KING. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in celebration. The curse has 
been lifted. For the first time in 54 long years, the Broadway Blues 
have tasted champagne from Lord Stanley's Cup. The New York Rangers are 
champions of the National Hockey League.
  No more will the derisive chant of ``1940'' be heard.
  I salute the 1993-94 Stanley Cup champion New York Rangers, head 
coach Mike Keenan, captain Mark Messier, Conn Smythe trophy winner 
Brian Leetch, goalie Mike Richter, and all the other players and 
members of this fine organization who have proved that anything is 
possible if you stick to it long enough.
  ``1994.''
