"Incredibly, the Leafs possessed three different two-goal leads on the night, and somehow, still found a way to lose the game. As a whole, it wasn't the type of game we expected. Honestly, it felt more like an All-Star game. There were no hits and no post-whistle antics. It was just goal after goal after goal. Despite getting booed in his home arena, Mitch Marner tallied two assists."
"Ironically, on a night filled offence, the turning point in the game was a big save. With the Leafs up 3-1 in the second period, Adin Hill robbed Bobby McMann. Hill was not great, but it was the timeliness of the save. It's tough to place blame on Joseph Woll, who surrendered six goals on 33 shots, for the loss. That said, dissimilar to his counterpart, he was unable to make a timely save."
Toronto lost 6-5 in overtime at T-Mobile Arena after surrendering three separate two-goal leads. The game featured non-stop scoring, minimal physical play, and felt like an All-Star contest. Mitch Marner recorded two assists despite boos in his home arena. Jack Eichel scored the overtime winner and added three assists. Adin Hill made a timely second-period save on Bobby McMann that shifted momentum. Joseph Woll allowed six goals on 33 shots in a rare off night. The penalty kill gave up two power-play goals. William Nylander exited after a goal and an assist due to a re-aggravated lower-body issue. The Leafs are 1-1-1 on the road trip.
