For a Leafs team that lost two games to Buffalo, two to Montreal, and one to Arizona in the past six weeks while also beating the top competition in Carolina, Florida, and Boston, the key is not overlooking this game against a Flyers team that is banged up (no Sean Couturier, Travis Konecny, or Scott Laughton), auditioning rookies, moved out pieces at the deadline, and is playing out the stretch with an eye towards the draft lottery — especially knowing it could be tempting to look ahead to the back-to-back against Tampa and Florida coming up.
The Maple Leafs will receive the boost of Jack Campbell’s return between the pipes for his first start since March 8th.
