Leafs open season-ending homestand vs. Caps

TORONTO -- The Toronto Maple Leafs are sitting in an ideal spot as they try to clinch a playoff spot.

They will finish their regular season with four games at the Air Canada Centre, starting with a Tuesday game against the league-leading Washington Capitals.

The Maple Leafs played their final away game of the regular season Monday night when they defeated the Buffalo Sabres 4-2 to sweep a three-game road trip.

"This week is going to be huge for us," said Maple Leafs goaltender Frederik Andersen, who faced only 22 shots Monday.
