Toronto Maple Leafs Move into 1st Place in NHL

Morgan Rielly scored the overtime winner on a feed from Mitch Marner, and with the subsequent two points the Toronto Maple Leafs have surpassed the Tampa Bay Lightning and the Nashville Predators to move into first place overall.

The Leafs overcame a wonky first period (the Ducks had 12 shots and a 56% possession rating) to put away one of the NHL’s worst teams. Now, even though the Ducks are terrible, and the Leafs are the best, it’s still the NHL and that means that your third game in four nights as an eastern team on the West Coast is going to be a tough one.
