What is a ranger as in New York Rangers?

In: New York [Edit categories]

Answer:

A New York Ranger is sort of the same thing that a Texas Ranger is supposed to be. The name comes from the fact that the guy who put the NY Rangers together's nickname was Tex. From there the association with the Texas lawmen came in, and they were called the New York Rangers.
