Fans will have the option to bid on or purchase items, with an auction and buy-now options.
Gilbert's work with Garden of Dreams, including serving on the foundation's advisory board, has made a significant impact on thousands of young people across the New York area.
Over the years, Mr. Ranger offered his time and generosity to provide support at Garden of Dreams events by visiting children's hospitals, playing ball hockey at community centers, meeting young people and their families at the Garden, and lending a hand at annual fundraising events.
"We were honored that the team wore the '7' patch on their jersey this season, reflecting that he was the heartbeat and the spirit of the New York Rangers," said Judy Gilbert, Rod's wife. "It means so much to the family to work with Garden of Dreams to honor Rod's legacy and benefit the foundation that meant so much to him.
"He used his platform to give back to the community and especially to champion Garden of Dreams. As his wife of 30-plus years, I watched as Rod invested an enormous amount of time and energy in raising funds and creating awareness as only Mr. Ranger could do."
The front of the patch hails Gilbert as the Rangers' all-time leading scorer; he is first with 406 goals and 1,021 points. The back quotes his often-spoken words: "It's not what you have, it's what you give."
