The Maple Leafs are seeking their sixth win in a row as they enter a more challenging stretch of their schedule tonight in Carolina
The Maple Leafs have been grinding out wins despite some uneven five-on-five performances against lesser competition thanks to their ability to defend, manage games, capitalize on their chances, and strong goaltending. Now, they’ll be tested against a structured, playoff-bound team with elite special teams and a generally strong command over the five-on-five play.
Ahead of the matchup against a fast and deep Hurricanes team, Craig Berube is making some adjustments to his bottom six forwards and two of three defense pairings, swapping out Max Pacioretty (pointless in his last five, minus-four) and Ryan Reaves in favour of the “speed” of Nick Robertson and Pontus Holmberg.
On defense, Morgan Rielly will shift next to Chris Tanev and Oliver Ekman-Larsson next to Philippe Myers (a new pairing this season),
Joseph Woll, riding a five-game winning streak (.934 save percentage), will start his 21st game of the season in the Toronto net.
