Tonight, the Toronto Maple Leafs are taking on the Seattle Kraken, and if you look at the lineup, it is clear that the team is trying to make a bit of a statement.
After winning two in a row, the Toronto Maple Leafs are looking to make it a third against the Seattle Kraken, who aren't exactly lighting the world on fire.
If the Maple Leafs can get the win tonight, they will improve their position in the Atlantic Division, which should be the goal right now.
Earlier today, we reported on how Anthony Stolarz is getting the start, and that Calle Jarnkrok has become a healthy scratch.
Now, we know what the entire lineup is going to look like, and if you are a Leafs fan, you will agree that the Leafs are making a statement.
