Reilly's goal in OT lifts Maple Leafs over Ducks

ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) — Morgan Reilly scored on a breakaway with 1:43 remaining in overtime and the Toronto Maple Leafs swept the California portion of their trip with a 2-1 victory over the Anaheim Ducks on Friday night.

Marleau opened the scoring less than seven minutes into the game when he positioned himself in front of the net and redirected Jake Gardiner's pass with his left skate. It is the 539th goal of Marleau's career, giving him sole possession of 32nd place on the NHL's career list

Aberg tied it with less than two minutes remaining in the second period with a 45-foot slap shot for his team-leading sixth. The goal broke a Ducks' scoring drought of 124:05, dating back to the second period of Monday's game against Nashville.
