Them

We just played this team, so they aren't a mystery. One-line dominance, excellent power play, questionable goalies who are getting along okay this season.

Us

Coming off a game where the Leafs allowed four goals with a goalie in the net, that goalie gets the start again. But it's Anthony Stolarz, so that's okay.

No Chris Tanev at the optional skate, but no word yet either on any other lineup decisions. We shall assume the same lineup as last game until told otherwise, but Tanev could be in for McWard. McWard has been okay so far, which is good.

The Game

Narrative, trope, narrative, cliché, narrative, clickbait.

There, I summed up the pregame storylines. The game itself, well, to be honest, I don't know what to expect anymore. They played worse when they won games and are better-ish now and losing all the time.

Go Leafs Go! Try to score a big pile of goals, eh?
