Nick Robertson, Matias Maccelli and Dakota Joshua also scored for Toronto, and Cayden Primeau made 23 saves.
Tage Thompson scored twice and Bowen Byram added a goal for Buffalo. Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen stopped 18 shots.
The Maple Leafs played without winger William Nylander. H was listed as a game-time decision because of a lower-body injury.
