Craig Berube Makes a Power Move with the Toronto Maple Leafs' Lineup Against the Predators
Toronto Maple Leafs head coach Craig Berube is trying to get his team back in the win column, and as you will see, his lineup tonight is a major statement.
The Toronto Maple Leafs have been pretty abysmal through the first three games of the NHL season. They have a win, but it wasn't exactly an impressive one.
For Maple Leafs fans, the season has been frustrating so far, and it's hard to tell whether or not this team has what it takes to turn things around.
Tonight, they play the Nashville Predators, and that will certainly be a good opportunity to show people that they do, in fact, have what it takes to be a good team.
Craig Berube keeps things the same for the Toronto Maple Leafs
With that in mind, fans and the media have been looking at head coach Craig Berube to come through with a good lineup that matches up well with the Preds.
In the end, the Maple Leafs have decided not to make any changes. They got goalie'd yesterday, and they hope not to have that happen again.
No lineup changes for the Leafs tonight, coach Craig Berube confirms
Steven Lorentz (upper body) misses a second straight game

The one change would be Cayden Primeau, who is going to be making his Maple Leafs debut as a starter. This is a cool opportunity and should make for some fun.
Easton Cowan gets to be on the first line again, and we know there are some fans who are going to have something to say about that.
Either way, the Leafs are looking for a win. Losing three in a row would just be disastrous to start off the season.
If they don't win, then Berube is going to have to answer some tough questions as we make our way through November.
