Game Notes
TOR
?Andersen (6-2-2, 3.03 GAA, .901 Sv%) will likely start for the Leafs
?Tavares is expected to return to the line-up after missing the past 6 games with a finger injury
?Muzzin is confirmed to be out for Saturday. He left Tuesdays game with a lower body injury but Babcock claimed that he would not be traveling to Philly for "personal reasons"
?While it's way too early to use the phrase "must win" to describe games, the Leafs did start November out of a playoff spot. A game against a non-playoff team who are tired from playing the night before seems like one that they need to win
PHI
?Elliott (3-2-0, 3.10 GAA, .904 Sv%) will likely start for the Flyers
?Philly is coming off a 4-3 shootout victory over the Devils on Friday night
?Head coach Alain Vigneault recently challenged his top players in the media to step up their games. He specifically called out Giroux (2 goals and 7 points in 11 games) and Voracek (4 goals and 9 points in 11 games) as guys who need to lead the way
?JVR is off to a rather slow start to the season with just 3 goals and 6 points in 11 games. He was also goaless/pointless in his first 7 games
