These are urgent times in Leafsland, but experiments can’t make up for a lack of goals in loss to Avalanche
On Wednesday night against the Colorado Avalanche, in Game 30 of a skid-sideways season, the Maple Leafs tried a pile of stuff. They put Frederik Anderson in goal for the second time in two days for the first time since 2017. Morgan Rielly played an entire game with Tyson Barrie for the first time, as part of comprehensively shuffled defence pairs. “And I think our play reflected that.”YOU MIGHT BE INTERESTED IN...And that was the tough part. Valeri Nichushkin took the puck the other way and scored, on a night where Andersen stopped 27 of 29 shots.
