Reuniting William Nylander and John Tavares worked well on Monday and the Toronto Maple Leafs hope the success continues Wednesday night against the visiting New York Rangers.
Nylander had two goals and two assists — all in the second period — and the Maple Leafs opened a five-game homestand with a 5-2 victory over the New York Islanders.
Tavares had a goal and an assist while Calle Jarnkrok, the other player on the line, also scored a goal.
The Rangers also won Monday night, 6-2 over the visiting Florida Panthers.
After losing 3-2 in overtime to the Montreal Canadiens on Saturday, the Maple Leafs overcame a 1-0 first-period deficit with a four-goal outburst in the second period Monday.
Keefe moved Nylander to a line with Tavares and moved Mitchell Marner to play with Auston Matthews after the sluggish first period.
Ilya Samsonov, in his third consecutive start, made 31 saves and improved to 13-0-1 on home ice.
Marner did not have a point, ending his franchise-record home point streak at 20 games.
The Rangers won on Monday despite Florida’s 35-26 advantage in shots on goal.
Mika Zibanejad, Adam Fox and Artemi Panarin each had three points for the Rangers.
Zibanejad had two goals– including the 250th of his career — and added an assist on Fox’s goal. Fox had a goal and assisted on each of Zibanejad’s goals. Panarin had three assists — two on Zibanejad’s goals and the other on Fox’s goal. It was his 28th career three-assist game.
Igor Shesterkin made 33 saves and came close to scoring a goal into an empty net with 5:25 left in the third period.
