The game was a back-and-forth battle between two competitive teams, with both goaltenders making key saves throughout. In the end, it was Knies' goal that proved to be the difference-maker for the Maple Leafs. The Rangers had their chances, including Zibanejad's goal and Cuylle's impressive short-handed tally, but they were unable to come away with the win. Despite the loss, the Rangers remain in the playoff hunt and will look to bounce back in their next game. The Maple Leafs, on the other hand, continue their winning streak and look to be in top form as they push towards the playoffs. With strong performances from players like Matthews, Marner, and Nylander, Toronto is proving to be a force to be reckoned with in the Eastern Conference.
