ONE YEAR AGO: Feb. 17, 1998
As the U.S. Olympic hockey team is defeated by Dominik Hasek and the Czech
Republic, 4-1, in Nagano, the New York media learns that New York Rangers
Head Coach Colin Campbell has been fired (though it would not become
official until Feb. 18). The team, thereafter under John Muckler, would
play with more heart and intensity, and would be infused with more and
younger talent in the next month and a half, but would continue to generate
mediocre (and worse) results over the next 365 days.
