Game Notes
VAN
?Markstrom (17-11-3, 2.79 GAA, .910 Sv%) will likely start for the Canucks
?In his last 10 games Markstrom is 8-2-0 with a 1.70 GAA and a .942 Sv%
?If you haven't heard, Vancouver's uber rookie Elias Pettersson will miss this game after suffering a knee injury against Montreal on Thursday. Pettersson, the 5th overall draft pick in 2017, has 42 points in 38 games this season
?No word yet if Vancouver will call-up a forward in Pettersson's absence. Would be pretty interesting though if current Toronto Marlie Sam Gagner received a 2nd call-up this season
?Former Leaf Josh Leivo is also out with an injury. Leivo had 4 points in his first 6 games with the Canucks but just 1 in his next 8
?Vancouver's season has gone better than many expected it to. They're in a very close race for the wild card spots in the West
TOR
?Hutchinson (1-2-2, 4.18 GAA, .851 Sv%) will likely start for the Leafs
?If you missed the news, Sparks is out with a concussion, so Hutchinson will get another start
?Andersen was a full participant at practice with the Leafs on Friday, but the Leafs won't be rushing him back. No word yet on who will be backing up Hutch but I'd expect a Marlies goalie will be called up to do the face-off tracking
