Sheldon Keefe Announces Major Reinforcements to Face the Hurricanes
Sheldon Keefe, head coach of the Toronto Maple Leafs, revealed that they'll get major reinforcements for their game against the Carolina Hurricanes.
The Leafs are set to face the Hurricanes tonight, less than 24 hours after their impressive 6-3 win against the Edmonton Oilers.
Tyler Bertuzzi, Ilya Lyubushkin, and TJ Brodie will play tonight as the Leafs seek to win a second game in two days. The challenge won't be easy, as they're set to face the Carolina Hurricanes.
"Keefe tells media in Raleigh that Bertuzzi, Lyubushkin, and Brodie all coming back in tonight."
Bertuzzi missed last night's game as he was dealing with a sickness, whereas Lyubushkin missed the last three games for the same reason.
As for Brodie, he was a healthy scratch for the last two games.
The Hurricanes are coming out of a tough 7-6 loss in shootout against the Washington Capitals. As they look to bounce back, it'll be interesting to see how the Maple Leafs will try to get the upper hand tonight.
Make sure to tune in earlier than usual, as the game is set to start at 6:00p.m. ET.
