They havent looked good in awhile now. I woulda thought that he would have got them going yesterday but they looked pretty complacent again.

Yeah, I think it's a factor of playing Calgary twice, and the west coast trip first game back factor. The game in Edmonton was a bad one no doubt. We will see Thursday, but I have faith that Trotz will have them playing back to their normal selves for this game. Should be an improved effort, though maybe a line shake up with the exception of the Cizikas line is in store. Got to get Barzal going, holding auditions for a NHL left winger.

Sounds like the Isles will draw Sparks again in net -

Frederik Andersen will start Wednesday against Edmonton.

Andersen is coming off a 5-3 win over Buffalo on Monday night. He has a 29-13-3 record this season with a 2.60 goals-against average and .922 save percentage. Garret Sparks will presumably play Thursday versus the Islanders because coach Mike Babcock intends to use both goaltenders in Toronto's back-to-back situation.
