<p>A couple of minutes later, the Leafs grabbed their first lead of the night. Nylander took a breakout pass from Justin Holl just inside Toronto&#8217;s blueline and flipped the puck to Calle Jarnkrok, who broke in past New York&#8217;s defenders and wired a shot past Sorokin&#8230;</p>

<p>Nylander capped off his huge performance later in the second frame with a goal that made the score 4-2. He picked off an Islanders breakout pass in New York&#8217;s zone, carried the puck up to the high slot, and fired a shot through a screened Sorokin&#8230;</p>
