This week, New York Rangers forward Vincent Trocheck received some enthusiastic public support from his wife Hillary after the team released new promotional images for the 2026 NHL Winter Classic.
On Wednesday, Hillary shared one of the photos to her Instagram story posting an image of Trocheck in the Rangers’ fresh Winter Classic jersey with a vintage-inspired white base with deep blue “NEW YORK” lettering across the chest accented by classic red striping.
Across the image, she wrote an enthusiastic reaction complete with a string of emojis:
“My GOD that’s a good wallpaper 😩🥹😩🥺 Come home sir”

Vincent Trocheck’s wife Hillary gushes over his culinary skills
Earlier in the offseason, Vincent Trocheck leaned fully into his well-established chef streak. His wife Hillary shared a weekend batch of Instagram stories that showed the Rangers center back in his element at home this time building a taco spread on their kitchen counter.
The laid-out lineup included seasoned ground beef, shredded cheese, chopped green onions, salsa, guacamole and taco shells, and Trocheck was soon seen shirtless in a cap, assembling plates for the family.
It was the latest in a run of at-home cooking moments for him. Just a week earlier, Hillary had gone on about a perfectly smoked brisket he’d pulled off.
“A minute for my husband’s brisket 🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹” and added, “@trocheck_21 killed it babe.”
The offseason also brought the couple to Alberta where they attended teammate Braden Schneider’s wedding in Banff. Hillary’s photo carousel showed the full range of the weekend including black-and-white booth shots with friends, a snap of her and Vincent and an outdoor portrait of the two in front of the mountains.
Trocheck wore a double-breasted suit while Hillary opted for a colorful patterned dress. Other images captured the classic Banff scenery including a snap of a lodge with red rooftops framed by the Canadian Rockies and a downtown street lined with boutique buildings against the mountain backdrop.
