NHL ROUNDUP : Toronto, Laforest Stop St. Louis, 3-1

The St. Louis Blues had no trouble shooting Monday night against Toronto, but goalie Mark Laforest was able to stop all but one shot as the Maple Leafs took a 3-1 victory at Toronto on two third-period goals by Gary Leeman.

“If you stop a few early, it’s good for your confidence, good for your brain,” Laforest said.

St. Louis outshot the Maple Leafs, 12-4, in the first period and 24-7 in the second, but had only a 1-0 lead. Laforest made 45 saves as the Maple Leafs won their third straight. The Blues outshot Toronto, 46-28, for the game.

Peter Zezel scored for St. Louis at 13:35 of the second period.

Toronto’s John Kordic tied it at 2:34 of the third period and Leeman put Toronto ahead at 9:18.

Calgary 3, Edmonton 3--Rookie Martin Gelinas scored with 28 seconds left in the third period and the Oilers tied the Flames at Edmonton.

Gelinas scored on a pass from Glenn Anderson after a wild scramble in front of Calgary goalie Mike Vernon after the Oilers pulled goalie Grant Fuhr for an extra attacker.

The tie enabled Edmonton to extend its unbeaten streak to eight games and maintain its three-point Smythe Division lead over Calgary and the Kings.

The Oilers had won six straight.
