Devils beat Maple Leafs in shootout

NEWARK, N.J. (AP) -- Jacob Josefson and Patrik Elias scored in the shootout and the New Jersey Devils rallied late to beat Toronto 2-1 on Wednesday night, extending the Maple Leafs' losing streak to a season-high seven games.

Cory Schneider made 29 saves through overtime and handled both Toronto shootout attempts as the Devils won for the fifth time in eight games (5-2-1). Defenseman Adam Larsson scored the tying goal with 2:50 left in regulation.

James van Riemsdyk scored on a breakaway in the third period, and Jonathan Bernier made 22 saves in the loss.

Bernier made a pad save on Scott Gomez on the Devils' first shootout attempt, but Josefson and Elias beat him with backhanders on the next two tries.

Mike Santorelli missed the net on Toronto's first attempt, and Schneider stopped Tyler Bozak on the second.
