    To Jeff Blashill, the outcome came down to one simple fact.

    "They made one more play than us," the Detroit coach Blashill said.

    To Toronto center Auston Matthews, it came down to persistence.

    "We've got a lot of chances the last couple of games," Matthews said. "We had some pretty good chances tonight, the puck just wouldn't go in.

    "It was nice to finally finish it off there with a half a minute left."

    Matthews scored with 30.2 seconds left to give the Maple Leafs a 3-2 victory over the Red Wings on Sunday night.
