Toronto Maple Leafs head coach Craig Berube set his lineup at practice today, and it appears as though the Maple Leafs have finally figured it out.
Throughout the early portion of the NHL season, the Toronto Maple Leafs have struggled mightily when it comes to keeping a consistent lineup.
The team has struggled with a plethora of injuries, and with Scott Laughton out, it was hard to really get any momentum going.
However, Laughton is back, and the team is fully healthy on the offensive end. As a result, the team has no excuse not to put together a reasonable lineup.

The Maple Leafs were able to dominate the Utah Mammoth with their re-worked lineup on Wednesday night, and now, it seems like the Leafs have a permanent lineup.
For instance, the first line will consist of Auston Matthews, William Nylander, and Matthew Knies, while the second line is Nick Robertson, John Tavares, and Bobby McMann.
The third line remains Dakota Joshua, Nicolas Roy, and Matias Maccelli, while the fourth line consists of Steven Lorentz, Scott Laughton, and Max Domi.

This Maple Leafs lineup seems pretty solid, and with the Leafs taking on the Boston Bruins and the Carolina Hurricanes, things should get interesting.
Only time will tell whether or not the Maple Leafs can keep their winning streak alive.
Meanwhile, it will be fascinating to see if this is a lineup that can endure.
