Anthony Greco has now played for his and his father’s beloved NY Rangers.
Paul Greco, 54, was an FDNY firefighter who responded to the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. He died of World Trade Center-related illnesses in May of 2020. He lived long enough to know his son had signed with the Rangers, but not long enough to see him play for them, reports Mollie Walker for the NY Post.
Making Anthony’s Rangers debut even more special, he was on the ice for a total of 3 minutes and 43 seconds.
Greco’s future with the Rangers is uncertain, as he made the ice due to COVID-related absences.
