POWER-PLAYED: Maple Leafs' No. 1 unit comes under fire after giving up two costly shorties Via sunhornby
After a second try with six newcomers in the lineup, and the unfamiliar alignment of 11 forwards and seven defencemen, it’s obvious there are too many permutations to sort through for the coach before settling on a playoff roster.
“We’re still trying to find our way,” Matthews said. “Especially when you have so many new guys. We need to dial it in a little bit here, get our game back, find that consistency. Sunday was a day off to fly and it wasn’t known if the severity of O’Reilly’s injury would see him return to Toronto for assessment.Before he was hurt, O’Reilly was centring fellow newcomer Sam Lafferty and Michael Bunting, while Keefe rewarded Alex Kerfoot with some high-profile time on the line with Matthews and Mitch Marner.
Kerfoot has survived the annual round of trade rumours and has been deployed in just about every forward role possible in his time as a Leaf.
