For one brief shining moment, there was Camelot.
Twenty-five years ago, Mark Messier was King Arthur, Brian Leetch, Mike Richter and Adam Graves were Knights of the Roundtable and history was made at the Garden, reverberating in the building and up the Canyon of Heroes through which the Rangers strode with glee as champions while a grateful city exulted.
