Mitch Marner scored his 200th career goal 40 seconds into overtime and the Toronto Maple Leafs defeated the visiting Edmonton Oilers 4-3 on Saturday night.

Marner’s sixth goal of the season came at the end of a two-on-one break to give the Maple Leafs their second straight overtime win.

Bobby McMann scored twice for Toronto and Matthew Knies also scored in the win. Anthony Stolarz stopped 27 shots for the Leafs.

Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl each had a goal and an assist for the Oilers, whose three-game winning streak ended. Adam Henrique also scored and Stuart Skinner made 18 saves.

The teams traded goals early in the first period.

Henrique scored his second goal of the season at 1:42, batting in a pass from Mattias Janmark that was a couple of inches above the ice. Connor Brown started the break with a long pass along the right boards.

McMann answered at 3:53 with his fifth goal on a backhand off the rebound of John Tavares’s five-foot shot.

McDavid scored his seventh of the season at 1:51 of the second period during a power play on a clear shot from a rebound that followed Zach Hyman’s deflection of Draisaitl’s shot. Tavares was off for hooking.

Toronto’s Ryan Reaves was assessed a match penalty at 2:41 of the second for an illegal hit to the head of Edmonton’s Darnell Nurse, who was out for the rest of the game with what was termed an upper-body injury. Edmonton failed to score on the accompanying five-minute penalty.

Toronto had a five-on- three power play for 57 seconds starting at 11:22 of the second but did not threaten.

Knies tied the game with his eighth of the season at 13:08 of the third period after the puck came to him on a sloppy pass by defenseman Evan Bouchard.

McMann won a race for a loose puck to put Toronto ahead at 14:07 of the third.

Draisaitl jammed in his 13th goal of the season at 18:31 of the third to tie the game with Skinner removed for an extra attacker.

Toronto’s Auston Matthews (upper-body injury) missed his sixth straight game.
