Lawson Crouse had a goal and an assist, Stepan had two assists, and Darcy Kuemper made 24 saves for Arizona (22-22-4), which is 5-1-1 in its past seven games.
"Just by watching, you can see the commitment we've had to playing on top of teams, playing defensive and playing as a team, including tonight," Kuemper said. "We're having a lot of success doing it lately. We're working hard so we just have to keep it going."
Travis Dermott and John Tavares scored, and Andersen made 27 saves for Toronto (29-17-2), which has lost two in a row and is 1-4-0 in its past five games.
"We just have to stay the course, stay with it and keep working through it," Tavares said. "It's not easy at times, but this is a great challenge of character and a great opportunity to find a way to figure it out and solve that puzzle of where we need to get to."
Dermott gave the Maple Leafs a 1-0 lead at 11:45 of the first period on a shot from the left point. William Nylander had his first point in eight games with an assist on the goal.
Mario Kempe tied it 1-1 at 2:16 of the second period. Alex Goligoski's stretch pass hit off Crouse's stick, but Kempe gathered the loose puck and got behind Maple Leafs defensemen Martin Marincin and Igor Ozhiganov before scoring on a breakaway. Maple Leafs coach Mike Babcock challenged the play for offside, but the ca...
Clayton Keller gave the Coyotes a 2-1 lead at 15:19, beating Andersen short side from the left circle.
"We played the right way. We came out a little bit slow, but when we settled down a little bit and stuck to our game plan, that's when we got some chances and put some pucks in," Keller said. "Anytime you get some momentum, you seem to play more simple, and I think we did that."
Tavares tied it 2-2 at 3:12 of the third period. Zach Hyman won the face-off to Mitchell Marner, who passed to Tavares for a one-timer from the slot.
Crouse made it 4-2 when he scored into an empty net with 38 seconds left.
"We're really finding our identity in how we want to play as a team so it's good," Hinostroza said. "It doesn't matter (who's in the lineup), we've got so many great characters in here whether somebody is jumping in or out of the lineup, it's great to see and great to be a part of."
Maple Leafs forward Andreas Johnsson left the game with 3:52 left in the second period after falling into the boards and sustaining a concussion. He will not be available against the Washington Capitals on Wednesday. Babcock said Trevor Moore would be recalled from the Toronto Marlies of the American Hockey League. … T...

SANTA CLARA – The top-ranked U.S. women’s soccer team is returning to the Bay Area ahead of another World Cup run.
The Americans will play host to South Africa on May 12 at Levi’s Stadium as part of the buildup to the Women’s World Cup in France, U.S. Soccer announced Thursday. Tickets for the game are scheduled to go on sale to the public at 10 a.m. Dec. 13 through ussoccer.com.
The defending champion U.S. team has scheduled 10 games next year ahead of the World Cup, June 7 to July 7.
Four years ago, the Americans defeated Ireland 3-0 at Avaya Stadium in a tuneup before heading to Canada where they won their World Cup title. The U.S. women have played four friendlies in the South Bay since the Earthquakes opened Avaya Stadium in 2015.
But this will be the team’s first appearance at 68,500-seat Levi’s, one of the stadiums being considered to have a role in the 2026 men’s World Cup.
The stadium has held the 2017 Gold Cup final between the United States and Jamaica and the opener of the ‘16 Copa America Centenario as well as international games involving Argentina, Chile, Mexico, Manchester United and FC Barcelona.
The Women’s World Cup draw is scheduled for Saturday in Paris when the 24 teams will learn their group opponents.
No. 50 South Africa has qualified for the first time as well as Chile, Jamaica and Scotland.
The United States will face seven teams who have qualified for the ‘19 World Cup, opening the year Jan. 19 at fourth-ranked France.
The Americans are led by former collegiate stars Julie Ertz of Santa Clara University, Alex Morgan of Cal and Christian Press, Kelley O’Hara and Andi Sullivan of Stanford.
A funding crisis at Whitby Fishing School was thrust into the TV spotlight last week, when it appeared on The One Show.
The edition ended with the Government saying it is working with the school, based at the Mission to Seafarers’ Centre in Whitby, to try to put some funding in place, although this has not been guaranteed.
The Government has redefined ‘apprentice schemes’ which has forced the school to offer diplomas instead which may not appeal, attract or be relevant to the young people who might be interested in taking up fishing or in web searches for careers.
“It’s hard as no-one can see us,” said Chief Executive of the school, Anne Hornigold.
The school’s financial support had also been spotlighted at a time when the UK could regain direct control over its fishing waters under Brexit and when, at the moment, 60% of the waters are trawled by boats from other countries.
Whitby boasts the only fishing school which trains apprentices in the classroom and offers practical experience.
The episode, which can be seen on BBC iPlayer, showed apprentice Kieran Gilmour, from Manchester, who was aboard a Locker trawler catching lobsters with Mike Locker.
Mike said on the show that EU rules had led to the loss of many trawlers from the industry thanks to regulations and quotas.
“We have lost 100 trawlers in 20 years,” said Mike, who has worked 18 hour days and on occasions, 36 hours.
Arnold Locker, interviewed near Whitby’s Swing Bridge, had supported the establishment of the fishing school.
The show also featured discussion about Whitby with actor Stephen Tompkinson – known for his popular roles on Ballykissangel and Drop the Dead Donkey – saying he used to go to Whitby as a child for fish and chips.
And pub landlord actor Al Murray said British cod would be much happier becoming fish and chips than a cod mornay somewhere in France.
