TORONTO — Alex Tuch scored twice, including the winner, as the Buffalo Sabres defeated the Toronto Maple Leafs 6-4 on Saturday.
Toronto winger William Nylander extended his franchise-record point streak to open a season to 11 games with an assist. Tuch then added an exclamation point with 66 seconds left in regulation when he buried his third into an empty net after fighting off both Nylander and John Klingberg. But Matthews tipped home his third of the night — and 11th of the campaign in his 11th game — off a Mark Giordano point shot at 7:27 to make it 4-4 as hats rained down from the Scotiabank Arena crowd.Woll then made a big stop on a Peterka with Nylander in hot pursuit to keep the teams level.
The Leafs took their third too many men on the ice penalty of the season later in the period, and Peterka took advantage on the ensuing power play when he snapped his fifth past Woll at 16:13.
