Here’s the quick and dirty rundown:
– The Maple Leafs are 0-2 in the second half of a back-to-back so far this season, including a 5-1 loss to the New York Islanders and a 3-2 loss to the Minnesota Wild.
– It looks as though Mike Babcock has made the statistically frowned-upon decision to start a goaltender twice in a back to back. Frederik Andersen is the probable starter, according to LeafsTV’s Paul Hendrick. Matt Murray (3-0-0, 1.33 GAA, .957 SV%, one shutout) will go for the Penguins.
– Hendrick has also indicated all three of Frank Corrado, Matt Hunwick and Peter Holland could be getting into the lineup as fresh legs in the back-to-back.
