Monday night at Madison Square Garden was near perfection for the Toronto Maple Leafs, whose 4-2 victory over the New York Rangers ended a two game losing streak and provided a nice capper to the annual Father-Son excursion, as the playerâs dads watched a outdoor team practice in Central Park on Sunday and took in the game last night clad in their sonâs jerseys.
