Watch: Marner busts out of goal-slump with slick redirection
John E. Sokolowski / USA Today Sports
Mitch Marner is back in the goal column.
The Toronto Maple Leafs rookie broke a seven-game goalless skid on Monday night, redirecting a Nikita Zaitsev point shot past Brian Elliott late in the the first period to give the club a 1-0 lead over the Calgary Flames.
The goal was Marner's 11th of the season and creates a three-way log jam with Auston Matthews and James van Riemsdyk for the team lead in points with 38.
