Good morning, and happy Saturday to everyone.
The Maple Leafs jetted off to Detroit yesterday to play the Red Wings tonight. We’ll have a preview/game chat post closer to game time, which is 7:30, so don’t get caught out.
Yesterday, Sheldon Keefe confirmed that Nick Robertson will play, Jack Campbell (from Port Huron) will start, and that several of the Leafs are suffering from whatever caused Ilya Mikheyev to leave the last game.
