Marner failed to record his 100th point of the season, finishing with 99. He had the puck on his stick several times in the final minutes with Halak on the bench, but could not get the puck down the ice into the empty Rangers net.William Nylander scored his 40th goal, the first time he has hit 40 in a season in his career.“You’re always going to coach and play to win, but the most important thing is make sure we get out of it healthy,” coach Sheldon Keefe told reporters after the morning skate.
A goal by the Rangers’ Filip Chytil with 1.2 seconds remaining did not count after a quick review determined he kicked the puck past goalie Joseph Woll. Nylander tied the game 2-2 at 7:48 of the third period, taking a pass from Ryan O’Reilly before moving to the front of the net and scoring high on Halak.
A minute before Nylander scored, the Leafs winger was serving a tripping penalty when Artemi Panarin scored on the power play for a 2-1 Rangers lead. Defenceman Timothy Liljegren ensured the Leafs would not be shut out for the first time this season when his shot went off the stick of the Rangers’ Niko Mikkola and past Halak at 1:45 of the third.Try refreshing your browser, orThe Leafs have not been shut out since Nov. 20, 2021, at home against Pittsburgh.
