The Toronto Maple Leafs are gearing up for their second game against the St. Louis Blue in less than a week.

Last Tuesday, they beat the Blues 4-1 and they will try to repeat that performance.

To do so, Sheldon Keefe decided to mix things up.

Over the weekend, a revamped powerplay unit took the ice at the Leafs' practice.

Indeed, in addition to John Tavares' return, Tyler Bertuzzi joined Auston Matthew, Mitch Marner and William Nylander on the first PP unit.

Per Jonas Siegel:

"It looks like the Leafs will be unveiling a five-forward No. 1 power-play unit.

Tyler Bertuzzi joins Auston Matthews, Mitch Marner, William Nylander, and a returning John Tavares."

With Auston Matthews being red hot since the all-star break, expect many goals from the special units.

This promises to be an exciting matchup, as the Leafs could send out five forwards on the powerplay this afternoon against the Blues.
