Knee Jerk Reaction: Max Domi, Matthew Knies lead Maple Leafs past Flames in 4-3 win
"The Toronto Maple Leafs won their second game in a row thanks to a game-winning goal from Max Domi in the final two minutes, and nobody needed it more. Determined to not let it get to overtime, Domi capitalized off a giveaway in the offensive zone and scored his second of two goals to take a 4-3 lead near the end of the frame."
"Domi, who hadn't scored since the second game of the season and has yet to register an assist on the season, was desperately in need of some positive momentum to get his game going, and his performance on Tuesday night should help him in a big way. Head coach Craig Berube noted as such prior to the game. Domi wasn't the only one to have a strong night for the Maple Leafs."
The Toronto Maple Leafs beat the Calgary Flames 4-3 after Max Domi scored a late, game-winning goal off a Flames giveaway in the offensive zone. The teams traded goals through the contest, with the Leafs overcoming an early 1-0 deficit to take a 3-2 lead before the Flames tied it late in the third. Domi had not scored since the second game and had no assists this season, so the two-goal night provides momentum. Matthew Knies had two goals and an assist on Domi's winner. Coach Craig Berube noted defensive lapses, and the Leafs face the Columbus Blue Jackets the next night. Early-season inconsistencies make October points especially valuable given a front-loaded home schedule.
