Overview
- Toronto beat St. Louis 3-2 on William Nylander’s goal at 4:06 of overtime, halting a five-game losing streak.
- Goaltender Joseph Woll stopped 27 of 29 shots in his second start of the season to earn the victory.
- Matthew Knies was a late scratch and is day-to-day with a lower-body injury, the team announced.
- Auston Matthews resumed on-ice work before the game after Monday’s update that he had not skated; he remains on IR and was not activated.
- With multiple regulars still out and Jacob Quillan and waiver pickup Troy Stecher dressing, GM Brad Treliving took responsibility for the slow start, backed coach Craig Berube, and said roster-for-roster trade options are being evaluated.
