Maple Leafs' Samsonov injured late in win over Oilers

Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Ilya Samsonov exited Saturday's 5-3 win over the Edmonton Oilers after suffering an injury while allowing a goal with under four minutes remaining.

Samsonov needed help off the ice immediately after Leon Draisaitl scored the Oilers' third goal with 3:39 left in the third period.
