The first day of practice at home in Toronto this week with Sheldon Keefe in charge was a bit of a media zoo for all sorts of reasons. Day two, yesterday, might have been expected to be the beginning of something more like a routine, but routine was not on the menu.

The lines were almost the same as from the last game, however:

Detroit lines are unconfirmed, and it’s assumed that Howard will get the start for them, but that is also not certain.
