Auston Matthews scores in OT to lift the Maple Leafs past the Rangers, 2-1

Auston Matthews scored 58 seconds into overtime to secure the Maple Leafs' first power play goal this season and end the Rangers' home shutout streak, officials said.

  • On Thursday, Toronto Maple Leafs captain Auston Matthews scored 58 seconds into overtime to give Toronto a 2-1 win over the New York Rangers at Scotiabank Arena.
  • Matthew Knies opened the scoring on Toronto's second power play midway through the first period, snapping the Maple Leafs' 0-for-9 stretch on the man advantage.
  • Anthony Stolarz made 28 saves while Igor Shesterkin stopped 22 shots after a.972 save percentage, showcasing strong goaltending.
  • The win lifted Toronto Maple Leafs to 3-2-0, while the New York Rangers have been shut out in all three of their home dates, a dubious NHL record.
  • Juuso Parssinen tied the game in the third, ending New York's goal drought at 170 minutes 39 seconds, and both teams have Saturday matchups: Leafs host Seattle Kraken and Rangers visit Montreal Canadiens.
