William Nylander, Mitch Marner, Pierre Engvall and David Kampf scored to help Toronto improve to 50-20-6 and reach 106 points.
"We’ve got a great group in here," Campbell said after the record-setting win. "Our coach (Sheldon Keefe ) has done a great job leading the way, and I think all the boys are really growing together."
