Big New York Rangers doings tonight at the M to the S to the G

Legendary New York Ranger players Harry Howell and Andy Bathgate will have their numbers hoisted to the rafters tonight at MSG with a ceremony beginning at 6:30 pm before the Rangers play Original Six brethren the Toronto Maple Leafs. Howell's number 3 will be raised as will Bathgate's number 9 (which he will forever share with Adam Graves who's own number 9 was retired almost three weeks back). With number 3 heading up to the rafters it means current number 3, Rags defenseman Michal Rozsival will have to unveil a new number before stepping onto the ice tonight vs the Maple Loafs.
