Rangers Defeat Maple Leafs 4-1 in NHL

The New York Rangers defeated the Toronto Maple Leafs 4-1, extending their season-opening points streak to five games, with Igor Shesterkin making 34 saves. Chris Kreider scored twice, including an empty-net goal, while Alexis Lafreniere and Artemi Panarin also contributed goals. The Rangers improved to 4-0-1 on the season, marking their first 3-0-0 start on the road since the 1931-32 season. Auston Matthews scored for the Maple Leafs, who saw their three-game winning streak come to an end and struggled on the power play, going 0-for-3. Despite a strong performance from Toronto, including a third-period push, Shesterkin's goaltending was pivotal in securing the victory. The Rangers will face Montreal next, while the Maple Leafs host Tampa Bay on Monday.
