Your game in 10:
1. Before the puck was dropped in this one, the Leafs were dealt a major blow, as it was announced Auston Matthews was day-to-day with an upper-body injury.

The result was Max Domi‘s promotion to fill the void at 1C between Mitch Marner and Matthew Knies, and Pontus Holmberg sliding over to fill the newly vacated 3C spot.
