The Toronto Maple Leafs have a back-to-back against the Detroit Red Wings and the Nashville Predators, which has led to some big goaltending decisions.
Through two games this season, we have yet to see Primeau. Instead, the Leafs are trying to keep him off the ice as much as possible until Woll returns.
Unfortunately, throughout the month of October, the Leafs have to deal with a total of three back-to-backs, which means Primeau is going to get his reps.
The first back-to-back is upon us, as the Leafs take on the Detroit Red Wings today for Thanksgiving. Tomorrow, they play the Nashville Predators.
Who plays against the Detroit Red Wings and the Nashville Predators?
Just moments before taking the ice against the Red Wings, the Maple Leafs have confirmed their starting goalie for tonight's game.
This decision ultimately confirms that Primeau will be in goal against the Predators, and will finally get to make his debut with the team.
This lineup is completely different from the one we have seen over the past few days, and we can only hope that it sparks a much better result.
You can find the lineup for today's game, below:
Knies - Matthews - Cowan
Maccelli - Tavares - Nylander
Roberson - Domi - McMann
Joshua - Roy - Jarnkrok
Blais
McCabe - Tanev
Rielly - Carlo
Benoit - Ekman-Larsson
