The Leafs face the Avs after really blowing their meeting a few games back in Toronto. That game was not fun, so let’s hope this one is.

All the pregame talk is about Andreas Johnsson on Nazem Kadri’s line tonight.
But it’s Kasperi Kapanen who makes it all about him with a rush chance in the first minute.
