Toronto Maple Leafs head coach Craig Berube is in quite the predicament as his team has lost three in a row and they play the Utah Hockey Club tonight.
Craig Berube has done an admirable job with the Toronto Maple Leafs this season, however, fans want to see him win a playoff series and show some growth compared to last season.
Although the team was well on its way to an Atlantic Division win, they are now on a three-game losing streak and the head coach has to steer the ship back in the right direction.
Tonight, the Maple Leafs play the Utah Hockey Club and that means figuring things out as quickly as possible.
Craig Berube promotes Bobby McMann
Yesterday, the Maple Leafs held a practice in Utah and Craig Berube was quick to make some key lineup changes.
For instance, Bobby McMann was promoted to the second line and will play alongside John Tavares and William Nylander.
Meanwhile, Pontus Holmberg was sent down to the third line and he will be paired up with Scott Laughton as well as Max Domi.
Knies - Matthews - Marner
McMann - Tavares - Nylander
Holmberg - Laughton - Domi
Lorentz - Kampf - Robertson
Jarnkrok
McCabe - Ekman-Larsson
Rielly - Carlo
Benoit - Myers
Tanev
Woll
Stolarz
McMann - Tavares - Nylander
Holmberg - Laughton - Domi
Lorentz - Kampf - Robertson
Jarnkrok
McCabe - Ekman-Larsson
Rielly - Carlo
Benoit - Myers
Tanev
Woll
Stolarz
As far as goaltending is concerned, Joseph Woll will be playing tonight as he looks to exercise some of the demons from his last couple of starts.
The Maple Leas need to get a win tonight and that means playing a full 60 minutes up and down the entire lineup.
Only time will tell whether or not Berube's lineup changes make a difference out on the ice.
