The Toronto Maple Leafs went to overtime and…..won?
It’s true! The Toronto Maple Leafs played from behind all night, but eventually they prevailed with a power-play goal in overtime.
Mitch Marner continued his points streak, now at 22 games and 30 points. Marner scored the OT winner and added an assist.
William Nylander, representing a victory for sanity over knee-jerk reactions, had a career-high five point night (2 goals, 3 assists).
According to several internet sources, Mitch Marner now has the 3rd highest scoring streak among active players. Patrick Kane once hit 26, which is a record for an American born player, while Sidney Crosby once scored in 25 straight games.
