James van Riemsdyk isn't skating with the Leafs today in practice and we're not sure why, yet. Let's hope it's just a maintenance day or a family event... er, the good kind.
No van Riemsdyk at Leafs practice; Clarkson his stand-in on top line

I'm sure we'll hear very soon what's up, so throw any update you've got in the comments.
Meanwhile, there is still speculation about who the Leafs' starting goaltender will be tomorrow night against the Minnesota Wild. My money is on Reimer, but then hey, Bernier did get the 'W'.
Jon bernier is 3-1-2 lifetime against minnesota. Only regulation loss was 2-1 last april 23rd when he stopped 23 of 25 shots. #TMLtalk

On to a couple links:
Anaheim Ducks use a Mighty sweater
From Wyshynski
Mark Scheifele falls, Gionta gets a penalty
Bummer.
Pretty slow news day today, as you might imagine.
