The Steven McDonald Extra Effort Award stands out as an emotional reminder of the Rangers community's significance, honoring a player for going above and beyond, especially poignant since McDonald's passing in 2018.
Steven McDonald, a quadriplegic ex-NYPD Officer shot in the line of duty, chose forgiveness and founded programs promoting nonviolent conflict resolution. The Extra Effort Award keeps his legacy alive in the Rangers community.
Established in 1988, this award is given based on fan votes, with the winner receiving a trophy and a $25,000 donation to the Steven McDonald Foundation in their name. Players like Adam Graves and Ryan Lindgren have been recipients.
