In an important game for both the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Calgary Flames, the Blue and White team won a 5-4 shootout against the Red team.

Nylander continues to be the offensive driver force for the Maple Leafs. He’s now extended his point streak to a whopping 14 games to start the 2023-2024 season.
