The Buds continued their home game winning streak, and tied franchise records for wins and home wins in a season. And they beat the Dead Things, so all in all, a good evening.

1-0 Leafs (@ThatsKappy)

Despite the fact that a million holding calls were missed, Bozak decided to not shoot in a prime scoring chance, and instead nutmeg Andreas Athanasiou and set up Kapanen, who makes no mistake and buries it.

1-1

A failed shot from Roman Polak turns into a solid stretch pass from Anthony Mantha that springs Dylan Larkin between Dermott and Polak, and Larkin beats Andersen to tie the game.

2-1 Wings

Leafs had a bit of a relapse right here, as the Wings walked all over them for a solid stretch, and a solid drop pass from Zetterberg went to DeKeyser, whose shot deflected off of Tyler Bertuzzi and in the net.

2-2

But the Leafs came back with a greasy play of their own, as a rare Dermott-Rielly pairing sighting resulted in a Dermott shot deflecting off of Brown and in.

3-2 Wings

I didn’t really know what was going on here, so just listen to Jeff.

3-3

I’d describe this play for you, but I’ve been informed that if I do, this post will get taken down for describing an explicit image, so just watch it again.

4-3

Marleau shows some hustle to create a 2-on-1, and makes a great pass to Kadri, who makes no mistake and tucks home the game winner.
And that’s all she wrote. 4-3 Leafs, and another home win.
