I was at this game, and I'm a Rangers fan. It was a dismal time in a dismal season (Thank God next year was the greatest year ever) but me and my friend stayed till the end, and as bad as it was we felt privileged to have witnessed something this special.

@dzanier I think what everyone that night realized was that not only was it 5 goals for Mario, but the culmination of chasing down Pat Lafontaine to win the scoring title after having to sit in a Pittsburgh hospital for cancer treatment just a couple months before this game.

wow Lemieux 160 points in 60 games that year. When Gretzky had a record 215 points in 1986 he had 162 points in 60 games.

Wow hes the greatest this isnt his only 5 goal game

Mario...simply...Magnificant :-D
I remember this as well, the Rangers were in the midst of their late-season freefall that year; Corey Hirsch got called up from Binghamton to play in goal for NYR & was awful in both games. This one, a 10-4 Pens win @ MSG, all but sealed the Rangers' fate that year. Also, the Pens were running up their league-record 17-game winning streak at the time as well.....
