Dylan Cozens had two goals and an assist, Drake Batherson scored twice and the visiting Ottawa Senators defeated the Toronto Maple Leafs 5-2 Saturday night.
Thomas Chabot added a goal and an assist for the Senators, who are 1-0-1 since the Olympic break. Linus Ullmark stopped 21 shots.
Morgan Rielly and William Nylander scored for the Maple Leafs, who are 0-3-0 since the break.
Joseph Woll allowed five goals on 28 shots before Anthony Stolarz replaced him late in the second period and made 12 saves.
The teams have split two games this season, with two more to come in the final month of the regular season.
Rielly scored from the left circle from Auston Matthews' cross-ice pass from the right circle at 2:52 of the first period. It came two seconds after Cozens finished serving a roughing penalty.
Chabot leveled the game when he scored as the trailer from the high slot on Brady Tkachuk's pass at 10:59 of the first.
The teams were tied after 20 minutes despite Ottawa holding a 16-2 advantage in shots on goal.
Cozens pounced on a loose puck to score from the edge of the crease at 3:03 of the second period. It came after Chabot's shot from the left point was blocked in front of the net by Toronto's Troy Stecher.
Batherson scored at 13:05 of the second on Ottawa's third attempt during an onslaught on the Toronto net. Nylander answered 51 seconds later when he poked in his own rebound in the goalmouth.
Batherson came back to score on a 28-foot wrist shot at 15:15 of the second. Cozens added a power-play goal at 16:06. The Maple Leafs were serving a delay of game penalty after their unsuccessful challenge of Batherson's goal.
A skirmish broke out early in the third period after a jam around the Toronto goal, resulting in two fighting majors and four minors.
Batherson had a chance at a hat trick but was foiled on a breakaway at 10:02 of the third period.
Toronto went on an ineffective power play at 10:27 that ended hopes of a possible rally.
Ottawa's Shane Pinto rang the crossbar with a laser at 13:27.
