Maple Leafs 3, Panthers 0: Ben Scrivens recorded his second consecutive shutout by turning aside 37 shots and Nazem Kadri collected a goal and an assist as visiting Toronto posted its sixth win in seven outings.

Phil Kessel and Clarke MacArthur also scored for the Maple Leafs, who snapped a five-game losing skid to Florida and improved to 7-2-0 on the road for the first time since the 1940-41 season.

After making 34 saves in Toronto's 3-0 victory over provincial rival Ottawa on Saturday, Scrivens didn't miss a beat against the Panthers. Making his 20th career appearance, the 26-year-old stopped 14 shots in the first period, 11 in the second and 12 in the third.

Kessel gave Scrivens all the offense he would need with 2:56 remaining in the first period. Kessel skated up the wing before firing a shot from the left faceoff circle that sailed over the glove of Jose Theodore. After Kadri doubled the advantage at 12:13 of the second period following a brilliant feed from captain Dion Phaneuf, the promising star returned the favor by setting up MacArthur 1:44 later.

Theodore finished with 30 saves for the struggling Panthers, who fell to 0-2-3 in their last five games.
