  • February 7, 2013 vs. New York Islanders

J.T. Miller is the most recent debut on this list, with his first game at MSG coming earlier this season. As the team's first-round draft pick in 2011, expectations were high for Miller coming into his first game with the Rangers, which had come two days prior to his arrival at the Garden.

He lived up to those expectations, as he picked up two goals and finished with a plus-2 rating, becoming the first Ranger to score multiple tallies in his MSG debut since Chris Kontos in 1983. With his two goals, the 19-year-old also became the youngest Ranger to have a multi-goal game since Alex Kovalev in 1992.
