The Toronto Maple Leafs are back in action for Game 72 against the Boston Bruins, and this one feels like a total lose-lose scenario for Leafs fans.

We get into the Fraser Minten and Brandon Carlo storylines, the pressure around this matchup, Toronto’s projected forward lines and defense pairings, Anthony Stolarz getting the start against Jeremy Swayman, and what Craig Berube’s lineup decisions could mean heading into the night.
