The Maple Leafs are off to Philadelphia to see the Flyers tonight. It’s the start of another set of back-to-back games, everyone’s favourite on the schedule! The second game will be against the Avalanche in Toronto on Wednesday.

> No Mitch Mariner for [#Leafs](https://twitter.com/hashtag/Leafs?src=hash&ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) tomorrow. Frederik Andersen will start vs. Philly, Michael Hutchinson to go vs. Colorado.
