EDMONTON, AB - Colton Sceviour notched his first goal in Blue & Orange, but a two-goal night from Auston Mathews and a 35-save performance from Jack Campbell condemned the Oilers to their sixth-straight defeat on Tuesday night in a 5-1 defeat to the Toronto Maple Leafs at Rogers Place.
Sceviour broke Campbell's shutout bid 5:26 into the third period to cut the deficit to two before Morgan Rielly responded 1:10 later to restore Toronto's three-goal advantage and put the game out of reach for Edmonton. Matthews added his second of the night with less than four minutes remaining to reach 20 goals on the season and help the Maple Leafs record their 20th win of the campaign.
The Oilers fall to 16-11-0 in the fifth game of a six-game homestand that concludes Thursday against the Columbus Blue Jackets.
GAME RECAP: Maple Leafs 5, Oilers 1
