The Toronto Maple Leafs sat stoically on their bench, watching the Detroit Red Wings hoist the Stanley Cup banner to Joe Louis Arena's crowded rafters. Then, Toronto put a damper on the celebration. Pavel Kubina, Dominic Moore and Nikolai Kulemin scored to lift the Maple Leafs to a 3-2 win Thursday night over Detroit in the opener for both teams.
