Maple Leafs allow 5 1st-period goals for 1st time since 2009

It certainly wasn't the start they were looking for.

The Toronto Maple Leafs stood still as the Dallas Stars stormed out of the gate with five goals in the first period Tuesday.

It's the first time Toronto's allowed five first-period goals since April 3, 2009 against the Philadelphia Flyers, per Sportsnet Stats.

Devin Shore got things started for Dallas, just 2:53 into the opening frame.
