The Kings are a tough team to play that keeps the goal totals low at both ends of the rink. The Leafs need some game breaking offence and a good performance in net tonight.
Pontus Holmberg is supposed to draw in per Craig Berube, the forward coming out is yet to be determined. Otherwise, the lines will likely be unchanged. source

Looks like they’re icing a bunch of kids. WE GOT THIS.
Damn - looks like the kids aren’t in the lineup. Or maybe they are hiding behind the bench.
Classic bait and switch from these bums!
