Vic Hadfield will be the 10th player to have his number retired by the New York Rangers.
Hadfield's No. 11 will be raised to the rafters in an on-ice ceremony before a game against the Winnipeg Jets on Dec. 2, the Rangers announced on Tuesday.
The former forward played parts of 13 seasons with the Rangers from 1961-62 to 1973-74, ranking fifth in franchise history in career goals (262), 10th in assists (310), and ninth in points (572).
He was a two-time All-Star and the first Ranger to score 50 goals in a season, accomplishing the feat in 1971-72, which was also when his three-season stretch as the Rangers' captain began.
He finished his career playing three campaigns with the Pittsburgh Penguins after a trade following the 1973-74 season.
