Calle Jarnkrok scored the go-ahead goal in the second period and the visiting Toronto Maple Leafs held on to defeat the Minnesota Wild 4-3 Friday afternoon at St. Paul, Minn.

Zach Aston-Reese and William Nylander added goals for the Maple Leafs, who have won the first two games of a four-game road trip. John Tavares added two assists. Matt Murray made 25 saves, including a superb stop in the final seconds.

Kirill Kaprizov and Mats Zuccarello each had a goal and an assist for Minnesota. Matt Boldy also scored and Alex Goligoski added two assists. Marc-Andre Fleury stopped 24 shots.

Marner scored his fifth goal of the season on a 57-foot shot that deflected off a Wild player at 3:42 of the first period. Timothy Liljegren and Tavares had assists.

Kaprizov registered his 12th goal on an 8-foot shot during a power play at 12:01 of the first on assists by Joel Eriksson Ek and Zuccarello. Justin Holl was off for high-sticking.

Aston-Reese scored his third goal of the season 42 seconds later on a shot from a sharp angle that went in off Fleury’s ankle. Pierre Engvall got the assist.

Boldy tallied his eighth goal on a shot from the bottom of the right circle at 2:38 of the second period off Goligoski’s slick saucer pass. Jordan Greenway also assisted.

Jarnkrok knocked in a loose puck after Mark Giordano’s shot at 10:04 of the second for his fifth goal of the season. Tavares also assisted.
