LIVE NHL Play By Play Commentary Toronto Maple Leafs @ Tampa Bay Lightning
11#CSP #NHL #LEAFSNATION
The Toronto Maple Leafs* (46-24-10, 3rd in Atlantic Division) travel to Tampa Bay to take on the Lightning (44-29-8, 4th in Atlantic Division) on Wednesday evening at Amalie Arena in the final game of the regular season. Both teams have clinched a postseason berth in the Eastern Conference and are preparing for the playoffs. The Lightning will play either Boston or Florida in the first round. The Maple Leafs have won two of their previous three games against the Lightning, including a 4-3 victory at Amalie Arena the last time they played there.
Yes, Auston Matthews — stalled at 69 goals and hungry for 70 — will play in an otherwise meaningless Game 82 for the Toronto Maple Leafs and Tampa Bay Lightning Wednesday night at Amalie Arena.
Shooters shoot.
After being noncommittal on the topic Tuesday night in Sunrise, head coach Sheldon Keefe confirmed Wednesday afternoon that Matthews will play with one goal and one game to go. The Leafs' decision makers briefly discussed dressing seven defencemen and scratching a forward. "The 70-goal thing aside, Auston's playing good and feeling good. If I had more guys to sit or rest, he wouldn't be at the top of the list for me, quite honestly," Keefe said. "In terms of Auston, there wasn't much a discussion there."
