DALLAS — Magic Mitch Marner turned it up to 20 on Tuesday night.
The Stars’ Jason Robertson, however, was unable to stretch his streak beyond 18 games despite registering four shots on goal.
The Leafs played much of the evening with five defencemen, including Conor Timmins who was making his Leafs debut, after Victor Mete suffered a lower-body injury in the first period. Mete was crunched along the side boards by Stars defenceman Jani Hakanpaa and initially went to the bench in pain before departing for the dressing room.
Most crucial in the first period was the play of Murray, who turned aside 15 shots, more than a few coming after some disorganization on the part of his teammates.We apologize, but this video has failed to load.You know how we always get the cliché from players that they have to take away the time and space from the opponent’s best players unless they want trouble? Well, it turns out that’s true.
It wasn’t as though the Stars didn’t have their chances. Murray was excellent in the second, turning aside 17 shots.
