Marner scores in OT as Leafs rally from 3 down to beat Bruins 5-4
BOSTON (AP) — Mitch Marner scored his second goal of the game in the final minute of overtime, and the Toronto Maple Leafs overcame a three-goal deficit to beat the Boston Bruins 5-4 on Tuesday night.
With goalie Anthony Stolarz pulled for an extra skater, Pontus Holmberg scored the tying goal for the Maple Leafs out of a scramble with 46 seconds left in regulation. David Pastrnak’s second goal had given Boston a 4-3 edge.
Pastrnak scored on a breakaway on the game’s opening shift to extend his career-best point streak to 15 games. The Bruins opened a 3-0 lead on Morgan Geekie’s power-play goal midway into the second period.
Morgan Reilly and Nicholas Robertson also scored for Toronto. The Maple Leafs won for the sixth time in seven games.
