Canucks rally past Maple Leafs for OT win:
Vancouver was down 2-0 heading into the third period but battled back to force the extra time. It was the first time this season that Toronto has lost when leading after two periods.
The victory snaps a three-game losing skid for the Canucks, who are fighting to keep their dim playoff hopes alive. Marner stayed patient as he streaked into the Canucks zone, waiting for the perfect opportunity to slide the puck underneath the out-stretched stick of Vancouver defenceman Troy Stecher.
He slid it up to Rielly at the face-off dot and sent a snapshot flying through Markstrom's five-hole. Nikolay Goldobin fed Leivo a cross-ice pass and the former Leaf put the puck past Andersen to tie the score at two.
