TORONTO (AP) — John Tavares snapped a tie in the third period, and the Toronto Maple Leafs beat the Utah Mammoth 5-3 on Wednesday night for their third consecutive win.
Tavares, William Nylander, Matthew Knies and Matias Maccelli each had a goal and an assist for Toronto. Nylander has five goals and 11 assists during an eight-game point streak.
Maple Leafs goaltender Anthony Stolarz stopped 21 shots.
Mikhail Sergachev, Michael Carcone and Dylan Guenther scored for Utah, which was coming off a 2-1 overtime win at Buffalo on Tuesday night. Vitek Vanecek had 14 saves.
Auston Matthews gave Toronto a 2-1 lead when he scored his eighth goal of the season 8:56 into the second period. But Sergachev responded for the Mammoth with 3:33 left.
