The Leafs didn’t have much time to enjoy the lead, as Jake Sanderson picked his spot on Stolarz to tie the game at 7:57. Less than a minute later, Matthews restored a Toronto lead thanks to a flub by Ullmark. The goalie came out of his crease to play the puck, only to have it bounce to Matthews, who put it into an open Ottawa net. It was Matthews’ 24th goal and first in four games. The Senators responded at 12:16. Stolarz anticipated a shot by David Perron, but slid too far to his right and Perron didn’t have trouble finding the top corner. Giroux’s go-ahead goal came after his pass to Ridly Greig hit Chris Tanev and skipped past a surprised Stolarz. Oliver Ekman-Larsson was serving the first minor of the game, for interference, when Giroux scored. Some 24 seconds after the Giroux goal, Greig and Laughton dropped the gloves. Neither player landed many punches, but Greig had the slight edge. tkoshan@postmedia.com X: @koshtorontosun
