William Nylander also dazzled to the tune of two goals and an assist (coming inches from a hat trick), as the Leaf power play struck twice and the penalty kill tacked on a shorthanded goal in addition. Mark Giordano scored his first goal in a Leaf uniform, Mitch Marner snagged three assists, and the fourth line mixed it up physically. Lots to discuss after the victory at Scotiabank Arena.
