Game two LET'S GOOOOOOOOO! Toronto Maple Leafs

Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Anthony Stolarz is projected to start Tuesday’s Game 2 against the Ottawa Senators. Stolarz was granted a rest day Monday and did not attend practice, but participated in Tuesday’s optional morning skate.

Toronto is expected to run back the same lines from Game 1. Berube made an in-game adjustment, placing Pontus Holmberg with John Tavares and William Nylander, while Max Domi joined Bobby McMann and Nick Robertson, and it appears that the Maple Leafs will be sticking with these combinations entering Game 2. McMann-Domi-Robertson were Toronto’s second-most commonly-used unit during the regular season. source

Projected lineup:

Matthew Knies -- Auston Matthews -- Mitch Marner
Pontus Holmberg -- John Tavares -- William Nylander
Bobby McMann -- Max Domi -- Nicholas Robertson
Steven Lorentz -- Scott Laughton -- Calle Jarnkrok

Morgan Rielly -- Brandon Carlo
Jake McCabe -- Chris Tanev
Simon Benoit -- Oliver Ekman-Larsson

Anthony Stolarz
Joseph Woll

Scratched: Dakota Mermis, Philippe Myers, Max Pacioretty, David Kampf, Ryan Reaves, Artur Akhtyamov

Injured: Jani Hakanpaa (lower body)

Status report: The Senators lines reflected those used during their morning skate. ... The Maple Leafs will dress the same 18 skaters they used in their 6-2 win in Game 1. ... The Holmberg-Domi switch was foreshadowed after coach Craig Berube moved Holmberg up to the second line in place of Domi midway through Game 1.

More of the same, please. Though I don't think we'll get that many PP chances again.

I was talking shit about Domi during the intermission. Someone was like, "watch him score the OT winner." Said I'd take back every bad thing I've ever said about him.

Enjoy your clean slate, Domi!

Next game: Matthews is such a bum. Hasn't even had a playoff hat trick.
