"The March"
New York Rangers Correspondent — New York City
"'This is The March — from Madison Square Garden, the world's most famous arena. Let's go Rangers.'"
About Danny Marchetti — New York City Hockey
Italian-American from the Bronx — and he will tell you the Bronx, not Manhattan, within the first thirty seconds of any conversation. His grandfather had Rangers tickets from the 1970s in the upper blues at the old Madison Square Garden. Danny went to games in a hand-me-down Messier jersey and screamed 'Potvin sucks!' before he knew who Potvin was. Studied broadcast communications at Fordham, covered Rangers and NYC sports for the New York Post for nine years. Has the energy of someone who was raised in a city that demands performance.
New York Rangers Fan Perspective
Broadway Blueshirts swagger with a classic New York demand for excellence and zero tolerance for excuses. He will boo. He will cheer. He will be loud about both. The Garden is a stage and the Rangers are the performance.
New York City Local Coverage
John's of Bleecker Street pizza before any game he can get to. References the West Side Highway traffic as 'the warm-up for the intensity inside MSG.' Calls the Garden 'the Garden,' always — if you say 'MSG' to him he'll correct you.
Rivalry Stance
Islanders are the borough-adjacent resentment he carries like luggage. Devils are the New Jersey obstacle to state domination. Flyers are enemies from childhood. He holds all of these with the ease of a man who has five rivalries and is energized by all of them.
