The undefeated Dallas Stars will look to serve the Leafs with a second consecutive loss tonight and will attempt to do so while starting their backup goaltender, Scott Wedgewood.

The only change for the Leafs is the inclusion of Nicholas Robertson to the lineup:

That’s correct, Robertson, who is a shoot first winger that is listed at 5’9″ and 183lbs on the Leafs site, will get his debut in the place of Denis Malgin….. a shoot first winger that is listed at 5’9″ and 182lbs on the Leafs site.

I wish Robertson all the best, but it’s abundently clear that management has a very precise recipe for this team. I’m just not sure that it’s working at the moment.
