"The Buds would double its advantage 24 ticks into the second. Matias Maccelli dumped the puck off the end boards and after it drifted unclaimed through the slot, John Tavares took possession and sent the puck back to Troy Stetcher at the right point. Stetcher fired a rising shot towards the goal that was deflected in by Matthew Knies. Auston Matthew, who was stoned by Sergei Bobrovsky on a breakaway in the first, put the Maple Leafs up by three at the 4:01 mark."
"The Panthers woke up in the third and peppered Joseph Woll with 19 shots. Unfortunately, only one of those went in and that marker went to Carter Verhaeghe who banked the puck off the keeper from below the goal line to break up the shutout bid with 8:22 left in regulation. Roy would collect his second helper of the night when Bobby McMann nudged the puck into the empty net to complete the scoring."
Florida Panthers opened the road-heavy second half with a 4-1 loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs at Scotiabank Arena. The Panthers surrendered three goals in a 4:25 span late in the first and early in the second. Toronto scored on a back-door finish by Easton Cowan, a deflection by Matthew Knies and a goal that made it 3-0. Florida pressured in the third with 19 shots and Carter Verhaeghe scored at 8:22, but Bobby McMann added an empty-netter. Nicolas Roy recorded two assists. The Panthers displayed a mystifyingly poor effort and now head to play the Montreal Canadiens.
