LIVE NHL Play By Play Commentary New York Islanders @ Toronto Maple Leafs
8CSP #NHL #LEAFSNATION
Winners of three consecutive before the All-Star break, the Maple Leafs attempt to stave off a season-series sweep tonight against the New York Islanders.
David Kampf’s injury (out for a week minimum) paired with Calle Jarnkrok’s absence has necessitated a bottom-six shuffle in which Pontus Holmberg will shift down to the fourth-line center, Noah Gregor will move up onto the third-line right wing, and Bobby McMann will return on the fourth-line left wing. Ryan Reaves will dress for the second consecutive game coming off of his goal in Winnipeg before the break.
Otherwise, the Leafs‘ three defense pairings and top-six forward lines are expected to remain in the same configuration as before the break. In net, Ilya Samsonov will look to continue his resurgent momentum from before the pause; he stopped 72 of 75 (.960 save percentage) and recorded a shutout in the team’s last three wins.
Under former head coach Lane Lambert, the Isles won the first two games of the season series in overtime on Long Island. The Leafs were significantly outplayed at five-on-five in the first game in December — John Tavares’ 1,000-point game — before taking it to the Isles at even strength in the January 11 rematch, but the result was an identical 4-3 scoreline in extra time.
Since Patrick Roy took over the bench, the Isles are 1-2-1 through a difficult stretch of schedule including matchups against Dallas, Vegas, and Florida. Four points out of a playoff position with one game in hand, the urgency level on the Islanders’ side is significant coming out of the break, but they will soon benefit from the return of top-four defensemen Ryan Pulock and Adam Pelech, potentially as soon as tonight. Both are considered game-time decisions.
