Domi's Clutch Goal Lifts Leafs Over Penguins

The Toronto Maple Leafs snapped a three-game losing skid with a decisive 6-3 win against the Pittsburgh Penguins at Scotiabank Arena. Max Domi scored the crucial go-ahead goal late in the third period, marking his fourth of the season and ending a lengthy 23-game goal drought. William Nylander was a key offensive contributor, tallying two goals and two assists, while goaltender Joseph Woll turned aside 29 shots to secure the victory.

The game saw multiple lead changes and strong performances from both sides. The Penguins initially had a goal disallowed due to goaltender interference. Toronto took an early lead through Nylander, but Pittsburgh responded. The Maple Leafs regained the advantage before the end of the first period and extended it in the second. However, the Penguins fought back to tie the game in the third, setting the stage for Domi's decisive goal.

Chris Tanev, a defenseman for the Maple Leafs, made his return to the ice after a 23-game absence due to an upper-body injury. The Penguins, who have struggled in their recent games with a 1-5-4 record in their last 10, were unable to overcome Toronto's late-game surge. Bobby McMann and William Nylander added empty-net goals to seal the 6-3 final score.
