Toronto dominated the opening period, winning the chance battle 8-2, but left the period tied, as Tyler Bozak's tip-in goal was cancelled out by a long shot from Kyle Okposo that Bernier fluffed. The Isles then managed to win the second period in chances, but it was again tied, Bernier's misjudgement of a puck to allow Grabner a wraparound goal matched by a rebound goal from Mason Raymond.
Falling behind early in the third really killed the Leafs, with Nielsen finishing a powerplay chance, and de Haan extending the lead to two with a long range shot. The Leafs generated just three chances in the 14 minutes after that 4th Islander goal, and while one was converted, by Joffrey Lupul, that was the last chance the Leafs managed during the game.
Toronto narrowly won the chance battle, but generating just two at ES in a third period in which you trail for most of it is pathetic. Credit to the Isles for playing a good defensive road game in that last frame, but Toronto will have to do better if they want to hold off the hordes at their heels in the standings.

A solid game for a lot of players up front, with no real standouts. Kessel and JVR were the best, each +2, while the Kulemin-McClement pairing got back above 0 for the first time in a few games. The only negative forwards were a goalscorer, Mason Raymond, and Colton Orr, -1 in 5 minutes.
Tim Gleason had an excellent debut, a team best +4. His partner Phaneuf was also solid, a +2, while Gardiner, who played a full 90 seconds more than anyone else at ES, was even. Franson and Rielly were both negative, but only -1, with Rielly topping 20 minutes overall in back-to-back games, the second time he's done that in his career.
