This was fast hockey.

Anthony Stolarz is still my favourite, though. > Stolarz clutch with the poke check after McDavid steals the puck from Rielly [pic.twitter.com/vDlvwtzZs3](https://t.co/vDlvwtzZs3?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) > > — Omar (@TicTacTOmar) [November 17, 2024](https://twitter.com/TicTacTOmar/status/1857947674428727679?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) Score was 1 all after the first. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/34/01/3401a938-f468-4c02-a227-9bc4cc09bad4/content/images/2024/11/20242025-20274-sva.png) That is not Oilers-typical offence. Leafs getting a free pass to the net is also enjoyable. ### Second Period Possibly the worst period the Leafs have played all year, although in the final minutes they tried hard to turn it back into a two-team contest. At the halfway point, they'd shot the puck four times after a full five minute major penalty kill and a shorter, unsuccessful kill. The goal, which came while John Tavares was in the box for hooking: > Connor McDavid makes it 2-1 on the power play [pic.twitter.com/wySVMotyZV](https://t.co/wySVMotyZV?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) > > — Omar (@TicTacTOmar) [November 17, 2024](https://twitter.com/TicTacTOmar/status/1857956742191087722?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) The illegal check to the head by Ryan Reaves on Darnell Nurse: > clear head contact > > no doubt about that [pic.twitter.com/C8ceDrM9W2](https://t.co/C8ceDrM9W2?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) > > — Omar (@TicTacTOmar) [November 17, 2024](https://twitter.com/TicTacTOmar/status/1857957187399696747?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/34/01/3401a938-f468-4c02-a227-9bc4cc09bad4/content/images/2024/11/BGkuDrIySper136u59JfvQWsJIwLB52hGuzgvj4C-1-.png) Reaves got a match penalty, and the fact that these hits usually result in the player getting tossed is likely one reason why the usual suspension – at least two games, but not usually more than three to four games – is so low. A suspension is inevitable, however. The Leafs got a full run of power play time themselves, including a four on three. But it is hard to score against a team fuelled by rage, and the Oilers took the puck back after the Leafs power play and more or less kept it. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/34/01/3401a938-f468-4c02-a227-9bc4cc09bad4/content/images/2024/11/20242025-20274-cfdiff-5v5.png) After two, it's 2-1 Oilers. ### Third Period Needless to say, Darnell Nurse was out of the rest of the game.

Or maybe Bobby McMann? > BOBBY MCMANN 🚨🚨 > > THE LEAFS TAKE THE LEAD!

That's Hockey. Stolarz made an epic series of important saves in the final minutes with Stuart Skinner out at the other end. Leon Draisaitl tied it up: > Leon Draisaitl ties it late [pic.twitter.com/mMrZFQGxzi](https://t.co/mMrZFQGxzi?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) > > — Omar (@TicTacTOmar) [November 17, 2024](https://twitter.com/TicTacTOmar/status/1857977026860208134?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) After three, it was three all. Once again, the Oilers owned the puck in the last five minutes of the period. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/34/01/3401a938-f468-4c02-a227-9bc4cc09bad4/content/images/2024/11/20242025-20274-cfdiff-5v5--1-.png) ### Overtime Stolarz had to make a save on a Connor McDavid rush but MITCH MARNER with his 200th NHL goal won the game. > MITCH MARNER 🚨 > > GAME OVER!
