Tonight, the Toronto Maple Leafs take on the Edmonton Oilers, and as you will see from the team's lineup, head coach Craig Berube is very much locked in.
The Toronto Maple Leafs are a team in desperate need of something good to happen to them, especially as they are seven points back in the playoff fight.
Getting to the end of the season is not going to be easy. After all, this is a team that struggled in the early going and put itself in a deep hole.
However, they are now on a two-game winning streak, and there is a real opportunity for this team to come through and showcase its prowess.
Tonight, they play the Edmonton Oilers, and this has created the perfect opportunity for the team to deliver a truly magnificent performance.
Craig Berube sets his lineup
After a strong game against the Calgary Flames, Craig Berube's lineup is projected to be the same as last night.
On the first line, we will see Auston Matthews, Max Domi, and Bobby McMann. The second line consists of John Tavares, William Nylander, and Matias Maccelli.
The third line is Nicolas Roy, Nick Robertson, and Matthew Knies. From there, Steven Lorentz, Scott Laughton, and Calle Jarnkrok make up the fourth line.

This is going to be a difficult game for the Maple Leafs to win, but it is definitely within reach.
The Oilers will be motivated, but the Leafs certainly want to win and go into the Olympic Break on an absolute high.
