Leafs playoffs lines against the Bruins revealed: Brodie, Giordano out
The Toronto Maple Leafs' projected lines for the first game against the Boston Bruins was released. Unfortunately, Brodie and Giordano are out.
As Toronto prepares for their first playoff game against the Bruins, here are the lines we saw at the team practice:
"Leafs practice lines
Bertuzzi - Matthews- Domi
Knies - Tavares - Marner
Robertson - Holmberg - Jarnkrok
Dewar - Kampf - Reaves
Gregor
Rielly - Lyubushkin
Benoit - McCabe
Edmundson - Liljegren
Giordano - Brodie
Webber - Timmins"
Bertuzzi - Matthews- Domi
Knies - Tavares - Marner
Robertson - Holmberg - Jarnkrok
Dewar - Kampf - Reaves
Gregor
Rielly - Lyubushkin
Benoit - McCabe
Edmundson - Liljegren
Giordano - Brodie
Webber - Timmins"
As you can see, the Bertuzzi-Matthews-Domi line was back together and William Nylander wasn't on the ice.
Domi, who missed the last two games, was back on the ice with a regular top-six jersey:

At the blue line, Mark Giordano and T.J. Brodie were extras, just like Conor Timmins and the newest member of the team, Cade Webber.
With Nylander off the ice, Calle Jarnkrok took his spot on the first powerplay unit:

PP2

PP1
Rielly, Marner, Tavares, Matthews, Jarnkrok
PP2
McCabe, Domi, Liljegren, Robertson, Bertuzzi "
If Nylander doesn't come back in time for tomorrow, that would be a considerable loss for the Leafs' offensive depth.
