Stecher scored his first goal of the season in a 5-4 win over the Rangers on Tuesday.

It came in his 12th game of the season. Stecher took a pass on a delayed penalty and went high over Dylan Garand's glove with 28 seconds left in the game to seal the win for the Maple Leafs. Stecher was claimed off waivers by Toronto from Edmonton on Nov. 15, 2025. It was his third game-winning goal (636 games).
