Lorentz scored a goal and added an assist Thursday in a 4-2 win over the Devils. The goal stood as the winner.
EDGE Analysis
Lorentz's last NHL goal came more than 11 months ago when he scored the game-winning goal for Florida in a 2-0 victory over Detroit. The big-bodied pivot also had two hits and two blocks in 15:07 of ice time. Lorentz won't be a fantasy star, but he's the kind of hard-scrabble underdog that Leafs fans adore. He wasn't picked until the 12th round in the OHL draft, was overlooked in his first NHL draft and then went in the last round when he was picked by Carolina.
