Brock Nelson is now 10 goals away from tying his single-season high of 37.

He scored his first two goals in the first period within 1:12 of each other to put the Avs up 2-0. After teammate Jack Drury (8) put them up 3-0 in the second, Nelson would score his third and final one with an empty-netter.

Max Domi (7) scored on the power play for Toronto with almost a minute left in the game, but it wasn't enough as the Leafs fell to 24-19-9.

The Avs continue to sit atop the NHL as they improved to 35-6-9. They are the only team in the NHL with fewer than 13 losses in regulation.
