Upon clicking on the link to the Rangers home page, I instantly saw one of their major sponsors: J.P. Morgan and Chase bank (Interestingly, while J.P. Morgan and Chase are connected as one bank, only Chase shows up on the page). This is notable because in the top right corner of the page, it states “Presented by Chase,” which also shows how the Blueshirts home arena, Madison Square Garden (MSG) has a partnership with Chase. Further down the on page, in the Junior Rangers section, there is an advertisement for “Girls try Hockey Free for the Weekend.” Part of this title is from Dunkin Donuts, another partner for the …show more content…
Another corporation who plays a prominent role in the Rangers website is Adidas. There is a large advertisement to purchase the Reverse Retro Lady Liberty jerseys on the page; in the top left corner of this ad is the Adidas logo (they make these uniforms and are featured for this reason). The last major company I saw was Fanatics sporting goods; this is presented in the link to the Rangers shop on NHL.com. These areall major national corporations, with Chase being the largest, as J.P. Morgan and Chase is the biggest bank in the United States and the sixth biggest in the world. I buy many of these companies' products, as I consume large amounts of coffee from Dunkin, and most of my sporting apparel I purchase from fanatics.2. One community relations event that the Rangers are hosting is the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund night.

When buying tickets, the website prompts individuals to pick a game to purchase them for; for this example, Monday, April 10th’s game against the Buffalo Sabres was used. Tickets are extremely expensive, as the least expensive one was $183.90 for the 400s section of the arena. In contrast, the most expensive option was $499.50 for the 100s level. There are tickets in the middle, but they’re still expensive, and may not even be that great, as MSG does have some seating that is restricted to viewing. Suites can be reserved at prices ranging from $176.00-$720.00. These tickets are located all over the venue and are usually very good seats. The Rangers do offer numerous different packages, including group tickets for parties of ten or more, club tickets in the Caesars Sports Book or J.P. Morgan clubs, and season ticket packages; these are all premium options that do not have prices directly listed on the website. Unfortunately, season tickets are no longer available for the 2022-2023 season, and are not yet available for next season, so it is impossible to find information about these prices. Furthermore, playoff tickets are not yet available, but it is expected that they will be available soon for extremely high prices.5. One thing on the website that is especially for kids is the Girls hockey program. This is for children ages 5-14 and is designed to expose young girls to the game of hockey. Theevent, which is operated by the Rangers’ Hockey Development Team, intends to
