2000–01 New York Rangers season

The 2000–01 New York Rangers season was the franchise's 75th season. The Rangers compiled a 33–43–5–1 record in the regular season, finishing in fourth place in the Atlantic Division.[1] New York's 10th-place finish in the Eastern Conference left it out of the 2001 Stanley Cup playoffs; it was the first time the team missed the postseason for four consecutive seasons since the 1962–63 to 1965–66 seasons.[2][3][4]
