Boldy scores in overtime as Wild outlast Maple Leafs 2-1
ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) — Matt Boldy scored on a breakaway 2:14 into overtime to lift the Minnesota Wild to a 2-1 win over the Toronto Maple Leafs on Sunday night.
Boldy and Marco Rossi worked a 2-on-0 breakaway after defenceman Jared Spurgeon chased down a loose puck in the neutral zone. He fired the puck down the ice to Rossi, who tapped it ahead to Boldy. The Wild forward made a move on Toronto goalie Anthony Stolarz to bury the game winner.
Filip Gustavsson made 27 saves in the win for Minnesota. Stolarz stopped 31 shots.
Ryan Hartman scored his third of the year on a goal that was initially reviewed to put the Wild up 1-0 midway through the first. William Nylander answered for Toronto with his team-leading ninth goal of the year.
