    Preview:

    The Toronto Maple Leafs hit the road again to play one of the best teams in the West, the Calgary Flames. The Flames are boasting one of the best scorers in the league with Johnny Gaudreau and a Norris trophy candidate in Mark Giordano. The Leafs will look to bring their High Octane offense to Calgary and outscore the Flames with Mitch Marner leading the way scoring wise and a Norris candidate of their own in Morgan Rielly. Should be a really interesting and intense game. The Goalie matchup should be Mike Smith vs Frederik Andersen.

    Mitch Marner –78 points (23 goals 55 assists)
    John Tavares – 71 points (37 goals 34 assists) 54% on face-offs

    Keys to the Game:

    1. Play tough against the top line of Calgary

    • Don’t give them any room to maneuver, because they will make you pay on the scoreboard

    2. Matthews, Johnsson, and Kapanen need to be an impact

    • These 3 need to have an impact on this game with Tavares, Marner, and Hyman checking the top line these three will need to play big. Which I fully expect them too.

    3. Top 4 Defencemen need to be good

    • Muzzin, Rielly, Hainsey, Zaitsev.  Need to step up and be solid!
