Troy Stecher followed at 6:23, just 54 seconds later. Those two quick goals made it 3–0 before Leon Draisaitl answered at 19:04, leaving Edmonton two goals behind with a period to play.
Nylander restored the three-goal cushion on the power play at 5:59 of the third. Zack MacEwen added Toronto’s fifth at 13:39, creating further separation before Draisaitl scored his second, also on the power play, at 16:35.
The late Edmonton goal did not produce a comeback. Nylander put the puck into an empty net at 17:56, and Vinni Lettieri completed the scoring at 19:29. Toronto’s final four goals came from three players, with Nylander supplying two of them.
Nylander’s empty-net finish also brought him to 300 career NHL goals, according to the team’s recap. His earlier goal came on the power play: two different finishes that helped Toronto restore and then extend its lead.

Stolarz and the supporting offence
The shot totals were much closer than the score. Edmonton finished ahead 32–31, while Stolarz allowed two goals across a full 60 minutes. His 30 saves gave Toronto room to turn its early scoring burst into a comfortable margin.
The official box score credits Roslovic with a goal and an assist, and Kirill Marchenko with two assists. Nylander finished with two goals; Matthews, Stecher, MacEwen and Lettieri each scored once.
