NY1 Mornings on 1: Skate with the Greats


By bringing together Hockey legends and passionate supporters, the Skate with the Greats event successfully and powerfully raised awareness and funds for Ronald McDonald House New York last Wednesday April 19th. The NHL’s New York Rangers have been hosting “Skate with the Greats” to benefit RMH-NY for 28 years established with the support of Hall of famers and longtime RMH-NY volunteers, Rod Gilbert and Brian Leetch. Through collective efforts, we have and are continuing to make significant impact, providing hope and assistance to families facing difficult circumstances.

Thank you to our title sponsor of 14 years, RBC Capital Markets, for making Skate with the Greats possible. A special thank you to RBC Capital Markets CEO, Derek Neldner, and Bobby Grubert, Chair of the RMH-NY Board and Head of DSCI for RBC Capital Markets. Their leadership and commitment to our families is invaluable.
