Mark Rosenman joins ESPN Radio's New York Rangers intermission report during Rangers-Capitals game to discuss his and Howie Karpins latest book New York Rangers by the Numbers: A Complete Team History of the Broadway Blueshirts by Uniform Number, available now on Amazon.com

What do Alexi Kovalev, Ted Irvine, and Mike Rogers all have in common? They all wore number 27 for the New York Rangers. Current team captain Ryan McDonagh joined their ranks when he became a Ranger in 2010. Since the Rangers first adopted uniform numbers in 1926, the team has handed out only 83 numbers to more than 1,000 players. That’s a lot of overlap. It also makes for a lot of good stories. New York Rangers by the Numbers tells those stories for every Ranger since ’26, from Clarence Abel to Mats Zuccarello. This book lists the players alphabetically and by number; these biographies help trace the history of one of hockey’s oldest and most beloved teams in a new way. For Rangers fans, anyone who ever wore the uniform is like family. New York Rangers by the Numbers reintroduces readers to some of their long-lost ancestors, even those they think they already know.

Henrik Lundqvist made 39 saves, and stopped all 31 shots he faced over the first two periods, to earn his third consecutive win, his 17th win of the 2017-18 season, and his 422nd career NHL win.

Over the last month (since Nov. 19 vs. Ottawa), Lundqvist has posted a 9-2-0 record, along with a 2.03 GAA, a .938 SV%, and 1 SO in 12 appearances. Lundqvist has posted a 15-4-0 record, along with a 2.36 GAA, a .929 SV%, and 1 SO in 20 appearances since Oct. 31, and as of the conclusion of tonight’s game, he leads the NHL in wins since Oct. 31. He has posted a 1.65 GAA and a .955 SV% (105 saves on 110 shots) over his current three-game winning streak.
