I am not posting a game day preview or notes today, heck things haven't really changed since the Wings last played the Leafs.
Instead I am going to focus on the Leafs since this is the last regular season meeting between the teams.
Toronto is 7-2-1 in their last ten games yet they still have their doubters, like it or not.
With 35 points, the Leafs are in the first spot of the wild card race, 4 points ahead of the Florida Panthers.
from Jonas Siegel of TSN,
The Maple Leafs don't have to look back too far in history to know how this story ends.
Toronto has happily snatched up 15 of 18 points in the past three weeks, but not without a few troubling signs of late that has the group on alert. An all too brief window of shot suppression and structure after a pair of November blowouts has veered precisely in the opposite direction.
The club has surrendered an average of 37 shots in the past six games, outshot by an average of nearly 10 in that span. They've scratched out wins on the strength on a powerhouse offence and of late, some fine goaltending, a formula history has proven flawed.
