The GetContentAsStream method yields a Stream, so you should be able to use CopyTo like this:
var strm = await response.GetContentAsStreamAsync(); using (var fileStream = File.Create(localFilePath)) { strm.CopyTo(fileStream); }

Thanks for the speedy reply! I was missing the "await" and hence it was complaining that CopyTo is not a method of Task<Stream>.
