BREAKING: Maple Leafs Stars Benched Tonight by Coach Keefe
It's no secret that the last games of the regular season don't matter for the Leafs. They already have their playoff ticket and the ice advantage is secured. As we've seen in the last couple of games, the Maple Leafs scratch some players every night, to let them rest.
Sheldon Keefe just made the official announcement that they decided to scratch some players for tonight's game.
Matthews, Marner and Girodano Won't Play Tonight
Per Sheldon Keefe:
Matthews, Marner, Giordano out tonight
Jarnkrok in
Leafs going one short - 11 and six
The Leafs will be without their two best forwards against the Lightning tonight, but the depth in their roster allows them to remain competitive.
