Earlier this week, Sheldon Keefe was asked about what might have sparked his group during a successful road trip through California. He stated that the loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets in late December 'got the team's attention.' After back-to-back losses where the Leafs have relinquished multi-goal leads, Keefe will be looking for a similar response of tightening up the details from his group as they host the Red Wings tonight.
Sheldon Keefe hinted that there could be a few lineup changes tonight. He confirmed that Mark Giordano, coming off a rough couple of games vs. NYI and COL, will be scratched, with Conor Timmins drawing in. The head coach also mentioned this morning that there were a few injuries last night, and some players are considered game-time decisions. Keefe did not dismiss a potential switch up the Tavares line, which he assessed 'did not have one good shift' against the Avalanche.
