Maple Leafs stole the show vs. Buffalo


The Toronto Maple Leafs' new-look second line stole the show Tuesday night against the Buffalo Sabres, as Mitch Marner recorded a career-high five assists and newcomer Ryan O'Reilly potted a hat trick in the 6-3 victory. 

Captain John Tavares, who moved to left wing on line two after last Friday's trade, netted four points as well. The trio's dominant performance marked the first time in franchise history three players recorded three points apiece in the first period of a game, according to NHL Public Relations.
