BELLEVILLE, Ont. - Tyler Toffoli got his league-leading 42nd goal of the year to pace the Ottawa 67's past the Belleville Bulls 6-4 Wednesday night in Ontario Hockey League action.
Michal Cajkovsky, Remy Giftopoulos, Sean Monahan, Nicholas Foglia and Steven Janes all scored singles for the 67's (34-14-6), while Petr Mrazek made 39 saves in net.
Daniil Zharkov, Stephen Silas, Austen Brassard and Jordan Subban all scored for Belleville (26-26-1).
Cajkovsky and Toffoli both scored in the final five minutes of the first period to put the 67's up 2-0.
Belleville tied the game on a 5-on-3 power play early in the second with goals from Zharkov and Silas.
But Ottawa then used a four-minute span to score three unanswered goals and effectively end Belleville's night. Giftopoulos scored the eventual game winner, followed by Monahan who was on a breakaway while short handed.
Ottawa's flurry was capped off with Foglia receiving a pass while stepping out of the penalty box and going in alone on Bulls goaltender Malcolm Subban, who finished with 19 saves.
Belleville made things interesting in the third with goals from Brassard and Jordan Subban, but an insurance marker by Janes prevented the Bulls' comeback.
