http://blog.mapleleafs.com/preseason-ends-tonight/

The Maple Leafs and Red Wings close out the home-and-home tonight (7pm CBC, TSN1050 Radio) in the final preseason game for both teams. Detroit defeated Toronto 5-2 Friday night in Detroit. The Red Wings scored three power-play goals in the win.

To get you set for tonight’s game, we will be having the #TMLtalk Game Day Skate show LIVE from the ACC today starting at 10:30am. Paul Hendrick, Bob McGill, Jon Abbott and Brooke Pashley will get you set for tonight’s game. You can also watch on Leafs TV or this link http://is.gd/wwBn8q

It is expected that James Reimer will get the start in net tonight. Cody Franson could also play after making his preseason debut in Friday’s loss. Franson was minus one with over 21 minutes of action Friday night.

Btw, there are teams that are playing split squad game, TOMORROW night. So, good luck with that excuse.

Drew MacIntyre is in the home net this morning, which would indicate his starting tonight.

I hope not, I thought Reimer was the Goal Tender for tonight.

#Leafs have recalled Spencer Abbott, Jerry D'Amigo, Andrew MacWilliam, Greg McKegg & Stuart Percy from the #Marlies Saturday morning.

Theres no need for it, preseason isn't about being entertaining.
Some people are just too damn entitled.

So confusing

 

[TmlHockeyFan]

This just in: most of the team got chronic diarrhoea, Marlies callups were necessary.

 

[The Reaper]

I guess both goalies are gonna share the net, well could work if the puck stays out of the net

Tonight is #HockeyNight! It's the @DetroitRedWings at the @MapleLeafs at 7 p.m. ET in pre-season action.

 

[Daisy Jane]

LOL why do I feel Randy is just playing with the media at this point?

 

[APV]

would have loved to see at least 1 expected starting day line ONE time in the preseason... guess not.

 

[LeafOfBread]

Lol wtf? We recalled a bunch of Marlies for this game?

Was hoping we'd win tonight just so everyone can calm down but looks like that might not happen

Lol, THEY WANT TO HAVE REIMER GIVE UP 6 GOALS!!!!


How big if a test is this for Rielly? He is running this team tonight

 

[frankthetank91]

Who gives a **** it's the last preseason game. Rest up the boys for Tuesday. Most of the decisions are made, this is kind of like a last chance to impress game for a bunch of the rooks.

 

[Cor]

Really glad I'll be missing this game
