Columbus scored twice in the opening nine minutes of the second period last night to knot the game even at 2-2 with the Toronto Maple Leafs, but Toronto got a goal from William Nylander to give the Leafs a 3-2 advantage and Toronto added a pair in the third period to defeat the jackets 5-2.
Toronto netted an empty net goal for its fifth goal of the game, making this next point a bit moot, but John Tortorella challenged the goal from Nazem Kadri (which made it a 4-2 game at the time) because he thought the play was offsides and, from my tinted glasses, the replays made it seem as if Torts had the right idea, but ultimately the decision room decided otherwise and the score remained.
