William Nylander scored his second goal of the game at 1:10 of overtime to give the Toronto Maple Leafs a 4-3 victory over the New Jersey Devils on Thursday night. Devils coach Sheldon Keefe was back at Scotiabank Arena as a visitor for the first time since being fired by the Maple Leafs in the spring.

TORONTO — William Nylander scored his second goal of the game 1:10 into overtime and the Toronto Maple Leafs rallied to defeat the New Jersey Devils 4-3 at Scotiabank Arena on Thursday.

With his recent comments, followed up by his performance in the Leafs' OT win Thursday, Nylander has proved he's the coolest cucumber in hockey, says Ken Campbell.

Matthews and Nylander both scored two goals as Toronto battled back from 2-1 and 3-2 deficits in the third period to beat New Jersey 4-3.

The Devils have only lost twice this season when leading after two periods (21-0-2). And both of those losses are to the Toronto Maple Leafs in overtime, including a 4-3 setback at Scotiebank Arena Thursday night.

Expect the goal market for Auston Matthews to flourish against this New Jersey Devils team as the Toronto Maple Leafs play host.

William Nylander scored his second goal of the game at 1:10 of overtime and the Toronto Maple Leafs defeated the visiting New Jersey Devils 4-3 on Thursday night.

The New Jersey Devils had a quick one-game travel break in between some home games. They visited the Toronto Maple Leafs on Jan. 16. Despite their best efforts, it was the Maple Leafs who were able to take home the victory 4-3 in overtime.

Until the Maple Leafs' Mitch Marner and William Nylander realize why exactly fans are booing, there's no reason to believe anything will change when the playoffs begin.

For the first time this season, William Nylander and the Toronto Maple Leafs have suffered three straight losses in regulation. Despite this, they hold onto first place in the Atlantic Division, which should help ease some of the criticism.
