Sheldon Keefe knows what Mitch Marner is thinking when the Maple Leafs’ star winger makes eye contact on the bench. “He gives you a little look over his shoulder wondering if he’s next or if he’s not, a ‘why-aren’t-I’ kind of thing,” Keefe, the Leafs coach, said on Friday. “When a player give you the eyes he’s telling you ‘I’m ready, so don’t slow this down anymore. With Keefe, Marner has 32 points in 22 games. The Leafs and Senators have not squared off since the 2019-20 regular-season opener, won 5-3 by the Leafs in Toronto.
