In breaking news, we now know when Toronto's recent acquisition Joel Edmundson will make his debut for the Leafs.

Edmundson Expected To Make Leafs Debut Tonight Against the Montreal Canadiens

The Leafs elected to add size and grit at this year's deadline, and they needed that to come on the blueline given their circumstances this year. That size has come in the form of Joel Edmundson, the Leafs' newest defenseman.

Now, a reporter has revealed that Edmundson will make his debut tonight against the Montreal Canadiens.

Edmundson is expected to make his debut with the #Leafs tomorrow where they will take on the #Habs. Funny enough, the first game Edmundson ever played for Montréal was against Toronto, the season opener in 2021, even earned a point. (Jan 13, 2021)

The Leafs will show their new-look blueline tonight, with the likes of Edmundson and Ilya Lyubushkin forming a new, larger blueline that has the grit that many think is what it takes to win a cup.
