Mikheyev surprises everyone, Leafs win 11 goal affair

Ilya Mikheyev scored the game-winning goal with three minutes to go in regulation with a shot from a terrible angle to close out a dramatic, controversial, and fluctuant game 6-5 in regulation. Auston Matthews scored his 10th straight goal on the road, topping up his own Leafs record, and Timothy Liljegren scored his first career NHL goal in the win. Jack Campbell stopped 20 of 25 shots he faced, while the Leafs scored six goals on 40 shots.

The Leafs were very good offensively in this game, but they gave up a lot of dangerous chances to the Blues, and Campbell wasn’t his best for most of the game, but he somehow made it to the end.
