**7PM**: CBC  
[James Reimer](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/54304/james-reimer?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) vs [Carey Price](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/54843/carey-price?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com)

Win or lose the [Toronto Maple Leafs](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/toronto-maple-leafs?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) will finish their season tonight. They enter with 85 points in 81 games played and a second half run that made fans forget about their dismal first half play. A win tonight means that Boston would receive either the 10th or 11th pick overall in the draft to finish compensating them for [Phil Kessel](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/54905/phil-kessel?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com).

  
 The season series between these clubs has Toronto winning 3 games to 2\. If the Leafs win tonight they'll have won the season series against every team in the Northeast. Montreal is tied with Buffalo in the standings now, a win (and a Buffalo L or OTL) sees them face Boston while a loss will send them to Pennsylvania to face either the [Flyers](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/philadelphia-flyers?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) or the [Penguins](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/pittsburgh-penguins?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com).

Matt Frattin has signed with the Leafs who have also called up [Joe Colborne](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/108208/joe-colborne?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com), acquired from Boston in the Kaberle trade. Both youngsters will make their debuts; Colborne between [Joffrey Lupul](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/55006/joffrey-lupul?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) and Phil Kessel, Frattin next to [Tyler Bozak](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/71017/tyler-bozak?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) and [Nazem Kadri](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/71825/nazem-kadri?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com).

A win would be beautiful but take a moment tonight and think about how different the roster is from two years ago. At 29 years old [Mike Komisarek](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/55649/mike-komisarek?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) is the oldest player under contract for the Leafs next season. This is a young team with upside. This is a rebuild.
