EDMONTON, Alberta (AP) _ Curtis Joseph made 33 saves as the Toronto beat the Edmonton Oilers 2-0 on Tuesday night, the Maple Leafs' seventh victory in their last eight games.

Joseph, who signed with Toronto as a free agent before last season after three years with the Oilers, has four shutouts this season and 26 in his 11-year career.

Tie Domi and Yanic Perreault scored first-period goals for Toronto. Defenseman Dmitry Yushkevich assisted on both goals.

Domi opened the scoring 3:44 into the game, banging a rebound into an open side after goalie Tommy Salo came out to stop Yushkevich's shot.

Perreault scored with 6:04 left in the period, deflecting Yushkevich's point shot over Salo's glove hand with six seconds left on Toronto's first power play of the game.

Joseph was at his best in the second period when Edmonton outshot Toronto 10-3. In the third period, the Maple Leafs goalie stopped Ethan Moreau's one-timer from close range.

Toronto moved five points ahead of second-place Ottawa in the Northeast Division, and closed within five points of Eastern Conference-leading New Jersey.

Edmonton is tied with Colorado for the Northwest Division lead. The Avalanche beat Calgary 8-3 on Tuesday night.
