One must win, one must lose. - Author: Adam Selvig - Tags: Game Coverage, #chorus, #Import 2023-04-05 11:15 One team is fighting for the playoffs and the other is officially out of them. The Marlies coach is suggesting the Leafs call up Colton Orr because he's a guy who tries hard, and well, he's not going play for the Marlies much. The Leafs didn't do that, but it makes sense tank wise. #### [San Jose Sharks](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/san-jose-sharks?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) at [Toronto Maple Leafs](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/toronto-maple-leafs?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) Air Canada Centre 7:30PM TV: CSN-CA, TSN4 Radio: TSN1050 SBN: [Battle of California](http://www.battleofcali.com/2015/3/19/8254871/sharks-gameday-an-introduction-to-fancyshats-part-deux-toronto-maple-leafs?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com), [Fear the Fin](http://www.fearthefin.com/?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) Leafs Notes: > Tim Erixon likely replacing T.J.

It screams "TANK! TANK! TANK!". This one won't be pretty. Enjoy if you want to watch. If you can, check out the IceDogs/Colts game, I'll be there checking up on Carter Verheaghe. The IceDogs are 3 points back of home ice for the first round of the playoffs, so it will be a good game.
