Toronto and Pittsburgh Combine for 11 Goals

Maple Leafs 6 – Penguins 5 (OT) In Pittsburgh last night the Maple Leafs scored with 0.01 tenth of one second remaining in the second period to go up 5-4 on their hosts.

But not to be outdone the Penguins returned the favor by scoring in the first 10 seconds of the third period to tie the game essentially getting all 10 scores from the teams in two periods of regulation play.

In NHL overtime you either score quickly or the periods drag on, last night Toronto went with brevity as RW Nylander wristed one past G Blomqvist for the game winner and Toronto’s goal scoring lead (35 G) one minute into the extra frame.

Thank you.
Matthew Knies goal might be the goal of the season so far for a Maple Leaf, imho. I posted it on the Island.
William Nylander’s goal was also a pleasure to watch, proving why he deserved a solid payout, imho. I posted it also on the Island.
Overall it was exceedingly exciting to watch and lends credence to our love of the game.
