TORONTO (AP) \u2014 Mark Stone<\/a> had two goals and an assist and the Vegas Golden Knights<\/a> beat the Maple Leafs 6-3 on Friday night in Mitch Marner\u2019s emotional return to Toronto.<\/p>\n

Jack Eichel<\/a> Pavel Dorofeyev<\/a>, Braeden Bowman<\/a> and Keegan Kolesar<\/a> also scored for Vegas. Adin Hill<\/a> made 18 saves, and Ivan Barbashev<\/a> had three assists.<\/p>\n

Marner, who played nine seasons with the Maple Leafs before his long march out the door ended last summer, was booed every time he touched the puck.<\/p>\n

John Tavares<\/a>, Scott Laughton<\/a> and Bobby McMann<\/a> scored for Toronto. Anthony Stolarz<\/a> stopped 25 shots in his return from an upper-body injury.<\/p>\n

Playing in the second of a back-to-back, Vegas won for the first time in three contests following a seven-game winning streak, including a 6-5 overtime victory over the Maple Leafs last week.<\/p>\n

Toronto has dropped three in a row and five of six.<\/p>\n

Rasmus Andersson<\/a> made his debut for Vegas after the blueliner was acquired from Calgary on Sunday.<\/p>\n
