were interested in Graves at this point and he signed with them in 1991. He recorded 26 and 36 goal performances in his first two seasons with the Rangers, but gained criticism from the media during a playoff series against the Pittsburgh Penguins when he chopped at Mario Lemieux's left hand, leading to a broken bone that forced Lemieux to miss the Penguins' next five games. Lemieux complained afterward that Graves and Rangers coach Roger Neilson had "engineered a hit" on him, and Graves was ultimately suspended for what turned out to be the Rangers' final three playoff games before being eliminated by the Penguins. During his first year he helped the Rangers to the President's trophy after scoring a league-high 105 points. Even though Graves' play continued to progress in the 1992–93 season, the Rangers fell to 6th place and out of the playoffs.
During the 1993–94 season Graves scored 52 goals and set a franchise record for most goals scored in a single season by a New York Ranger. In the spring of 1994, Graves helped the Rangers win their first Stanley Cup since the 1939–40 season. Graves was awarded a roster spot on the
