Toronto Maple Leafs at Pittsburgh Penguins – Game #6 Preview, Projected Lineups & TV Info
Toronto Maple Leafs vs. Pittsburgh PenguinsAfter losing three of five to open the season, the Maple Leafs are looking to start their first U.S. road trip since March 2020 on the right foot against a heavily-shorthanded Pittsburgh Penguins team tonight on Hockey Night in Canada (7 p.m., Sportsnet/CBC).
No one is getting fired over a loss tonight, but an under-performing Leafs team entering a Saturday night in Pittsburgh on the second half of a back-to-back early in the year, with key personnel missing from the Penguins lineup, does trigger memories of the night Mike Babcock’s tenure as a coach effectively ended in Toronto with a miserable 6-1 loss.
