Joseph Woll stopped 33 shots to earn his first shutout of the season Tuesday night as the Toronto Maple Leafs defeated the visiting New Jersey Devils 4-0.

Bobby McMann and Nicolas Roy each had a goal and an assist for the short-handed Maple Leafs, who have won three of four.

Calle Jarnkrok and Matthew Knies (empty net) also scored while Nicholas Robertson added two assists.

The key was Woll, who made some big saves in earning his third career shutout.

Jacob Markstrom made 26 saves for the Devils, who have lost four in a row.

The teams have split two games this season.

New Jersey had the better of the play in the early going and Dawson Mercer clanked a shot off a post at 11:40 of the first period.

Toronto took the lead at 14:21 of the first on a power play when McMann scored from the high slot on a pass from Robertson. Stefan Noesen was off for tripping.

The Devils buzzed around the Toronto end in the first half of the second period but continued to have trouble scoring, a recent problem.

New Jersey has only scored 10 goals in its last seven outings (2-4-1).

The Devils had just finished killing a penalty when Toronto took a 2-0 lead on Roy’s goal at 14:24 of the second period. Roy redirected Mann’s deflection of Robertson’s shot.

Woll made two superb saves on a Devils’ power play that started at 16:13 of the second period.

Toronto took a 3-0 lead when Jarnkrok’s wrister from the slot bounced in off a New Jersey player at 6:35 of the third period.

The goal followed a fight between Knies and New Jersey’s Nico Hischier as the game became chippy.

Woll again rose to the occasion late in the third period when Markstrom was removed for an extra attacker during a power play.

Knies then scored into an empty net at 17:01.

Toronto was without Auston Matthews, William Nylander and Chris Tanev, all absent with lower-body injuries. Dakota Joshua also was out with a kidney injury.

Linesman Shandor Alphonso briefly left the game in the first minute of the third period after he was hit on the ear by a puck, but returned six minutes into the period.
