The Maple Leafs stomped the Oilers last night with both heavy offence and stifling defensive play, winning 4-0, and getting a shutout for Jack Campbell in his first game back from injury.

That was a really fun game to watch as a Leafs fan, but for the rest of this week the games could be a little more difficult to watch if you live in Ontario. There’s four games on tap, two against the Oilers and two against the Canucks. Two of the games, Monday and Thursday, have very late starts at 10:00 p.m. ET, while Wednesday’s start is a more manageable 8:00 p.m..

The Leafs close out the week playing in Vancouver on Saturday, naturally with a regular 7:00 p.m. start. Oh, you know Canucks fans are already complaining about that “early” home game time. It’s wonderful.

Here’s our recap of last night’s game and the triumphant return of Jack Campbell.
