Like their game in Boston, the Maple Leafs fell behind early in the third period but again managed to answer.
Tyler Bozak scored with an empty net to tie the game, sending a second straight to overtime. Neither team scored in the extra period before James Reimer was able to hold the fort in the shootout.

For a second straight game, the Leafs carried possession, opening up a huge gap, finishing with twice as many 5-on-5 Corsi events as New Jersey. They were able to turn that into a big chance advantage as well, dominating at even strength, and they were unfortunate to end up behind going into the final few minutes. That was coupled with domination of the neutral zone, as they had over sixty percent of entries under control.
After a fairly quiet first period, both sides were able to generate more chances in the second, with New Jersey having a good run on the powerplay at the end of the period. Toronto didn’t generate much at even strength while chasing the game in the final period, but they owned five of the last six chances, including the tying goal.

Tyler Bozak and P.A. Parenteau, playing with Daniel Winnik for much of this game, were mostly matched up against the Zajac line and were able to dominate them. Their possession numbers were excellent, and Bozak and Parenteau had stellar chance numbers as well — not on for a single ES Devils chance against. They also dominated the neutral zone, and had a very high controlled entry percentage, beating out the Kadri line in both areas.
That Kadri unit also had a good night, although they weren’t able to match the Bozak line’s performance.
The pairing of Morgan Rielly and Matt Hunwick had another strong night, doing a good job of shutting down Adam Henrique’s line. Rielly was then on for further chances in overtime, helping him finish the best on the defense at +5. Jake Gardiner and Roman Polak stayed together as a pairing, and both finished in the positive in chances, doing an excellent job of preventing controlled entries.
Frank Corrado and Dion Phaneuf again had the highest percentage of offensive zone starts but finished as the worst pairing in terms of chances.
