The two teams were even most of the way, finishing the first period level in chances, and, despite a large number of chances, scoreless. New York had an overall edge in the second, but left the period trailing, after Tyler Bozak converted on a penalty shot. The Rangers had several good chances to draw level, but in the second half of the period the Leafs seemed to have worked out a strong defensive game, holding the Rangers chanceless for the last nine minutes.
A goal from Kadri early in the third had the Leafs ahead by two, but another powerplay collapse, allowing two goals on one penalty for the second time in a week, suddenly drew the Rangers even. Both sides had chances to take the victory, with the Leafs winning chances 5-4 in the last 13 minutes of regulation. There was just one chance in overtime, but it was converted, Bozak's second giving the Leafs a win.
The Leafs won the ES chance battle, 22-19, their best performance since the end of the Olympics. Close chances had a similar margin, Toronto winning them 20-18.

The top line generated a lot of chances, with Kessel and Bozak both on ice for 11, but also surrendered quite a few, not an abnormal thing. The key to the Leafs' success was the excellent play of Kadri and Kulemin, both game-high +6s. Lupul also did well, at +4, and Raymond was a +3. Jay McClement had a terrible game, managing to be on for 6 chances against in just over 6 minutes.
Ranger was strong on the back end, a +4, and Phaneuf had a very solid game at +3. Rielly was the weakest of the defencemen, at -2, but was strong at generating chances.
