Toronto Maple Leafs lose 5-3 to San Jose Sharks as Logan Couture nets two and one assist for the Sharks, while Toronto’s Michael Hutchinson gets his first career start
The Maple Leafs and Sharks barely created a murmur at Scotiabank Arena during a plodding first period on Friday night.
The win was San Jose’s fourth in a row to start the season. Since a victory over Winnipeg in their home opener, the Sharks have put the bite on Montreal, Ottawa and now Toronto, all on the road, in succession. The score had been tied 1-1 for only 17 seconds when Timo Meier scored a long shot that found its way through traffic and eluded Hutchinson.
“The goal to start the third period was inexcusable,” Keefe said. “I thought we were sitting in a good spot after the second. You can’t give up a goal like that.”
