Ilya Samsonov made 28 saves to earn his second shutout of the season and Alexander Kerfoot scored twice as the Toronto Maple Leafs defeated the visiting Anaheim Ducks 7-0 Tuesday night.
It was the second straight shutout for Samsonov and the eighth of his career.
The Maple Leafs have recorded three shutouts in their past four games, the other backstopped by Matt Murray.
The Ducks were shut out for the second consecutive game. They've lost the first two games of a five-game road trip that started Monday against the Ottawa Senators.
Mitchell Marner had two assists to extend his team-record points streak to 23 games (11 goals, 21 assists).
The Maple Leafs have picked up at least a point in 15 straight games (12-0-3), one away from the franchise best.

John Gibson stopped 25 of 27 shots for the Ducks before leaving in the second period with what appeared to be a lower-body injury. Lukas Dostal replaced him at 10:48 of the second period and allowed five goals on 15 shots.
Kerfoot scored from the edge of the right circle on Engvall's pass at 1:58 of the first period. Timmins also earned an assist.
