The Leafs would get a break as Andrew Ference on the power-play bobbled the puck and Tyler Bozak scored a short-handed goal on a breakaway. The Leafs second goal came from a turnover as Johnny Boychuk made a pass off the boards to Nathan Horton but the puck bounced away from Horton. MacArthur took the puck, went into the zone, went right around Boychuk and put the puck past Rask. That would be the game-winner.
