The Leafs are in Montreal tonight to kick off a stretch of three games in five days. We'll have our preview of tonight's game later this morning after news from the morning skate comes out.
Meanwhile the Marlies continue their boat show road trip and made a stop last night in Winnipeg for the first of two games against the Moose. Matt Murray got the shutout in a 3-0 win for the team.
