Auston Matthews scored for Toronto. Joseph Woll stopped 19 shots.

The Maple Leafs lost their third straight game in regulation for the first time this season. Toronto fell at Carolina 6-3 on Thursday and dropped a 3-0 decision to visiting Vancouver on Saturday.

Matthews extended his point streak against the Stars to 12 games, a run that dates to Feb. 7, 2017 — the longest of his career against an opponent. He opened the scoring, and Stankoven tied it about four minutes later.

Bourque put Dallas ahead on a power play in the second period. The NHL’s 28th-ranked man advantage team connected again early in the third when Duchene scored from close range.

Stankoven made it 4-1 as the Stars improved to 9-1-1 in their last 11 games.

Takeaways Maple Leafs: The league’s 18th-ranked power play dropped to 2 for 14 over Toronto’s last six contests.
