TORONTO, Oct. 13 (UPI) -- Brad Boyes scored the winning goal in a shootout Monday, giving the St. Louis Blues a 5-4 victory over the Toronto Maple Leafs.

Boyes also had a goal in regulation play. Paul Kariya and Patrik Berglund each had a goal and an assist for the Blues, who have won two of three to start the season. Andy McDonald had his third straight two-assist game while Legace made 35 saves in the win.

Niklas Hagman, Tomas Kaberle, Alexei Ponikarovsky and Nikolai Kulemin each had a goal for the Maple Leafs, who have lost their last two games. Toskala finished with 22 saves.
