Game Day Notes
– After today’s morning skate, Mike Babcock made sure to dispel any notion that the Leafs should feel they’ve got the advantage going in against a struggling Coyotes team. If the coach’s words weren’t enough, the fact that Mike Smith is starting in net for Arizona should be. Smith has been a long-time nemesis of the Leafs dating back to his days with the Lightning. He is 6-1-2 lifetime against Toronto and has won three straight against the Leafs, including his last two visits to the ACC.
