Edmonton Oilers Shut Out Toronto 1-0 as Leafs Losing Streak Reaches Six

Saturday, November 14, 2026 · Scotiabank Arena · Toronto

EDMONTON 1 – TORONTO 0

The Toronto Maple Leafs suffered another frustrating defeat Saturday night, falling 1-0 to the Edmonton Oilers at Scotiabank Arena.

Despite a strong performance from goaltender Anthony Stolarz, Toronto couldn’t generate the offence needed to overcome Edmonton’s defensive effort.

The loss extended Toronto’s losing streak to six games and completed a disappointing six-game homestand without a victory.

First Period – Scoreless Battle

Both teams traded opportunities in an entertaining opening period.

Toronto looked to establish its offensive game, while Edmonton used its speed and puck movement to create dangerous chances.

Anthony Stolarz kept the Leafs in the contest with several important saves.

Second Period – Bouchard Breaks Through

Edmonton finally opened the scoring at 15:34.

Evan Bouchard fired a slap shot past Stolarz after receiving a setup from Connor McDavid, with Leon Draisaitl also collecting an assist.

The Oilers took a 1-0 advantage into the third period.

Third Period – Leafs Come Up Empty

Toronto pushed for the equalizer but couldn’t solve Edmonton goaltender Devon Levi.

John Tavares appeared to tie the game early in the period, but video review overturned the goal because his stick was above the crossbar when he made contact with the puck.

Toronto pulled Stolarz for an extra attacker late in the game but couldn’t find the equalizer.

Levi finished with 19 saves for his first NHL shutout. 

Three Stars

Devon Levi, Edmonton – 19 saves, shutout.

Evan Bouchard, Edmonton – Game-winning goal.

Anthony Stolarz, Toronto – 22 saves in a losing effort.

What Went Wrong for Toronto

Offensive production remains a major concern.

Toronto couldn’t capitalize on its scoring opportunities.

The disallowed Tavares goal was a significant turning point.

The Leafs continue to struggle to close out games.

Six consecutive regulation losses have put additional pressure on the team.

The Maple Leafs need answers, and they need them quickly.

Six consecutive losses are unacceptable for a team with championship expectations. 

The defensive effort and goaltending were competitive against Edmonton, but the lack of scoring continues to cost Toronto valuable points.

Auston Matthews, William Nylander and John Tavares need to help lead the offensive turnaround.

Next Game: Toronto travels to Chicago to face the Blackhawks on Tuesday, November 17.
