Short-handed Flames Hold On For 4-3 Win Over Maple Leafs

Granlund scored his first goal in 21 games and added an assist to lead Calgary to a 4-3 victory over the Toronto Maple Leafs on Tuesday night. A healthy scratch the past three games, the 22-year-old Finn got back into the lineup only because coach Bob Hartley sat All-Star Johnny Gaudreau and Sean Monahan — the team's top two scorers — along with veteran Lance Bouma for disciplinary reasons. The Maple Leafs have dropped the first two on a five-game road trip that continues Thursday in Edmonton. The Maple Leafs were also without several key players, the most notable being captain Dion Phaneuf, who was involved in a nine-player trade with the Ottawa Senators earlier in the day. [...] we worked hard and had the puck a lot, but didn't score enough to win, coach Mike Babcock said. [...] despite the encouragement of the many pockets of boisterous Toronto supporters in the sellout crowd of 19,289, the Maple Leafs could not complete the comeback. Kadri was furious as he left the ice and replays appeared to show him making a throat-slashing gesture toward the Flames captain after he returned to the bench.
