    There were silver linings to the Rangers’ wild 4-3 overtime loss in their home opener at Madison Square Garden on Friday night. But the clouds they lined were huge, dark and ominous.

    Marian Gaborik left the game with a separated left shoulder in the second period after being boarded by Toronto’s Colby Armstrong. Gaborik, whose 42 goals led the Rangers last season, will be out of action for at least two weeks, Rangers Coach John Tortorella said after the game.

    Chris Drury also left with an injury in the second period after colliding with his teammate Michal Rozsival and falling into the boards.
