The Toronto Maple Leafs overcame a 3-1 deficit with a third-period rally to best the Ottawa Senators 4-3 on Saturday night.

It was the Maple Leafs' first win in regulation since Dec. 28, when they topped the last-place Arizona Coyotes. Prior to Saturday's game, the team had gone 2-3-4 in its previous nine contests, with both victories coming in the shootout.

Despite Toronto's shaky play of late, the Maple Leafs remain third in the Atlantic Division with a 13-point lead over the fourth-place Florida Panthers.
