Our Game Preview with projected lineups is here.
Everyone is talking about William Nylander and when is he going to get his first goal since finally signing his new contract. I say it will be tonight. If there’s one thing Willie knows, it’s Swedish goalies. He knows Lundqvist inside and out. His shot can easily penetrate a goalie with whom he is so initimately familiar. He’s scoring tonight. I think he’s scoring a lot. What do you think?

No. I am Henrik Lundqvist and I hate ABBA.

Come on, Willie. We’re all counting on you to score tonight.
Happy birthday to Travis Dermott!
Champagne birthday wishes go out to @Travis_Dermott . 22 years of age, and a new haircut to celebrate the big day. It just seems like yesterday that he was 21. Pairs up with Martin Marincin tonight against the Rangers. #Leafsforever
