The Toronto Maple Leafs are back at practice this morning, and the team has unveiled a unique lineup that will go up against the Calgary Flames on Tuesday night.
Tuesday night should be interesting for the Toronto Maple Leafs as they look to take on the Calgary Flames and get back above .500.
This is a very important game for the Maple Leafs, and the fans are going to be putting lots of stock into this one as they are begging for something good to happen.
Having said that, William Nylander isn't guaranteed to be in the lineup on Tuesday, and after a weird game against the Buffalo Sabres on Saturday, many have wondered what the lineup would look like.
Toronto Maple Leafs make unique lineup decision
Well, we got our answer on Monday at practice, as the Maple Leafs had Nick Robertson and Bobby McMann on the top line with Auston Matthews.
Matias Maccelli remains with John Tavares and Matthew Knies. Meanwhile, Easton Cowan is on the third line with Nicholas Roy and Dakota Joshua.
Lastly, the fourth line had Steven Lorentz, Max Domi, and Sammy Blais, as Calle Jarnkrok was not a participant at practice.

Overall, these lines are a lot of fun. As for the defensive pairing, Simon Benoit is with Jake McCabe. Morgan Rielly is with Philippe Myers, and Oliver Ekman-Larsson is with Brandon Carlo.
This isn't the best lineup the Maple Leafs have ever had, although it is certainly one that is inspired and has some pretty unique elements.
Only time will tell whether or not the Toronto Maple Leafs can deliver a win against a struggling Flames squad.
