So far the Maple Leafs and Lightning have each won a game, scored five+ goals, and ridden their special teams to wins.

Lightning coach Jon Cooper has said that he won’t be making any changes to the lineup that controlled the game on Wednesday night. The Maple Leafs are moving players around and in and out, including reuniting John Tavares and William Nylander. Ondřej Kaše is expected to play tonight, but didn’t participate in morning skate; Joey Anderson took his spot. It looks like Kyle Clifford and Wayne Simmonds are out on the road trip, Jason Spezza is making his playoff debut for 2022 as well.

In case you didn’t see the FTB headline on the front page, the Maple Leafs have removed Rasmus Sandin from IR and he could be close to playing? Maybe?

It won’t be a home crowd for the Leafs, but I’m sure lots of Leafs Nation will have made the trip south. Nothing better than a hockey game you can wear shorts to.
