I have such a soft-spot for Rammer... even if he did ignore me one game I went to in Buffalo. I was right behind the Rangers bench yelling 'RAMMER! RAMMER!' during warmups. He definitely heard me. Got nothing If nothing else I should be happy he was focused on his job

Still love the guy.

Comes as no surprise though. He's been working with the Canadian National team for a while now AFAIK

Yeah he was with the team in 2010 as well. One of the league's best.

Happy for him. He and Sam Rosen are the two constants of the Rangers world.

Outside of this year and 10-11 it seems like the Rangers don't have serious injuries all that often. (Staal the last couple of years is pretty much it). I feel like it's more than just luck. This fact let us get in the playoffs a few years.

Team Canada is in good hands!

Exactly this. Rammer has been with the team for almost 20 years now...he's as much a mainstay as Sam is. It'll be a very strange and sad day when either of those guys move on.

And congrats to Rammer! I know he won gold with Canada in 2002, I can't remember if he was a part of the 2010 team? I'm assuming he was.

I started watching during the 94 Cup Run thanks to my brother. This guy has been behind the bench from that day until this one with many more years to come. Canada is in good hands.

Close second to Rangers winning the Cup.

Are they selling hats?

He is quite photogenic, as well.
