Good Morning Maple Leafs fans!
The hated bye week is now over and the Toronto Maple Leafs play hockey once again. The Marlies can go back to being ignored by the newspapers, because all is right with the world.
It’s game one of a back to back, and all indications are that the newest Maple Leaf, Curtis McElhinney, will be starting goal tonight. At least he better be starting. We’re chasing the Senators for a playoff spot so we need to beat them, and Freddie would be the goalie to play against them.
Alright, let’s dive into some links.
