TORONTO - Arms in the air, Leo Komarov felt a weight
lifted. In his first 13 games back with the Toronto Maple
Leafs, he hadnt scored a goal.Its still in your head when
you got zero goals, Komarov said. You still think about
it.Komarov need no longer worry as his first goal of the
season was the game winner. Along with a crucial play on
a short-handed goal, too, Komarov led the way to a 5-4
victory over the Rangers on Saturday night at Air Canada
Centre that snapped the Leafs losing streak at two.In his
second tour of duty with the Leafs (7-5-2), the 27-year-
old pest has already matched his nine points in 42 games
his rookie year.Coming here, getting an opportunity to
play for us for 48 games, it was kind of like a
baptismal, coach Randy Carlyle said. His rookie year and
playoffs all that, it was a new eye-opener to him and he
went back and played in the KHL. It seems like hes a lot
more confident with the puck right now.Confidence and
instincts helped Komarov create two goals Saturday night
against the Rangers (6-5-2). On the penalty kill in the
first period, he got in the passing lane to disrupt play
and muscled the puck up the ice before feeding Peter
Holland for a short-handed goal.They just missed the pass
there and that was the only way I could do it, Komarov
said of taking the puck from New Yorks Matt Hunwick. It
was a lucky pass I gave to him.His game winner, scored at
14:26 of the third, wasnt lucky. Defenceman Jake
Gardiner, who redeemed himself for a mistake on an
earlier Rangers goal, waited out the defence before
getting the puck to Komarov, who fired it past backup
goaltender Cam Talbot.With the goal, Komarov made sure
the Leafs wouldnt come up empty after erasing two
deficits.Its always nice to score, Komarov said. But I
know Im not going to score that much. It feels great to
see the puck go in, but I think the win feels much
better.The Leafs will take the win, thanks to goals from
Phil Kessel, Holland, Richard Panik, Roman Polak and
Komarov and 31 saves from Jonathan Bernier and hope to
build something when they visit the Ottawa Senators on
Sunday night. Its the make-up game that was supposed to
be played Oct. 22, the day of the shootings on Parliament
Hill.The Rangers, who got goals from Chris Kreider, Mats
Zuccarello, Carl Hagelin and Rick Nash — who tied Corey
Perry for the NHL lead with 11, host the Edmonton Oilers
on Sunday. After this back-and-forth affair, players
werent happy with the openness they gave Toronto.I think
we caused our own problems tonight, said centre Derek
Stepan, who was strong in making his season debut after
missing time with a broken leg. We put ourselves in tough
spots managing the puck and the game.Rangers coach Alain
Vigneault took issue with what he considered a couple of
questionable penalty calls. But that didnt absolve his
team of blame.We made some poor decisions that led to
goals on their part, Vigneault said. This is the NHL.
Theyve got a good team and they can score a lot of goals.
Youd think four goals on the road is enough to win, but
it wasnt enough tonight.Talbot allowed five goals on 31
shots.Given the amount of chances back and forth, that
doesnt seem so bad. This was the kind of game that wont
be part of defensive highlight reels, for sure, but it
was entertaining.A couple times in a matter of a couple
shifts it seemed like we were going up and down the ice,
Holland said. At the end of the day we want to make sure
that were not giving up odd-man rushes like we did a
couple times there.The Leafs will take the good with that
bad because it meant two points after just one on a
Western Conference road trip. This one meant even more
because they managed to come back not once but twice
without wilting.I felt like we didnt panic tonight that
much, Bernier said. I thought we played a solid 60
minutes.Notes — The Leafs saluted several veterans prior
to the game in advance of Remembrance Day. James Dewar of
the 48th Highlanders performed Amazing Grace on bagpipes
before Scotty Newlands performed a stirring rendition of
O Canada. ... During the first period Johnny Bower was
honoured on his 90th birthday. The Leafs legend received
a framed print signed by players from both teams. ...
Leafs forward Daniel Winnik was held out after falling
headfirst Thursday night in Colorado. Carlyle said the
team was following league and NHLPA protocol. ... Morgan
Rielly returned to the Leafs lineup after being a healthy
scratch at the Avalanche. He replaced Stuart Percy. ...
Kessel was playing in his 600th career NHL game and David
Clarkson his 500th.___Follow @SWhyno on Twitter
