TORONTO - Tyler Johnson is a tough man to keep down.
One night after he took a shot in the face that caused his visor to shatter and open an 11-stitch cut over his left eye, Johnson scored two goals to help the Tampa Bay Lightning to a 2-1 win against the Toronto Maple Leafs at Air Canada Centre on Monday.
Lightning goaltender Andrei Vasilevskiy made 31 saves to earn his 11th victory of the season. Tampa Bay (37-22-4) has won seven in a row.

TORONTO - The Toronto Maple Leafs will dress a vastly different team when they host the Tampa Bay Lightning at Air Canada Centre on Monday.
On Sunday, the Maple Leafs traded left wing Daniel Winnik and the Anaheim Ducks' fifth round pick in 2016 to the Washington Capitals for forward Brooks Laich, defenseman Connor Carrick and Washington's second round draft pick in 2016.
