The New York Rovers were a senior ice hockey team that was established in 1935. They played in the Eastern Hockey League as a farm team of the New York Rangers. The Rovers played alongside the Rangers in Madison Square Garden. They played in the Eastern League through 1947 - 48. When the EHL took a break for the 1948 - 49 season, the Rovers played in the Quebec Senior Hockey League until the EHL resumed for the 1949 - 50 season. The Rovers folded in 1952 because of a dispute over television rights. The team couldn't sell the rights and could not afford to go on without doing so.
The team name was briefly resurrected in 1959, playing in the Long Island Arena. That Rovers franchise changed its name to the Long Island Ducks in 1961.
One last hurrah for the Rovers was 1964–65 when they played for one season in the Madison Square Garden. It was not a financial success.
