Markus Granlund netted a power-play goal for Calgary, which has dropped two in a row following a season-high four-game winning streak and fell to 4-18-1 in Toronto since Feb. 17, 1993. Jonas Hiller turned aside 25 shots in dropping to 0-5-0 lifetime versus the Maple Leafs.

Bernier denied rookie Johnny Gaudreau with a pad save at one end before Toronto turned the other way and Holland was credited with his second goal after the puck caromed off his skate midway into the first period to open the scoring. The Maple Leafs doubled the advantage 2:51 into the second as Kadri's feed from the right faceoff circle was redirected by van Riemsdyk in front.

Granlund beat Bernier under the crossbar 3:48 into the third to halve the deficit, but Calgary failed to net the equalizer despite outshooting Toronto by a 16-8 margin in the session.
