St. Louis, MO – The Toronto Maple Leafs and St. Louis Blues face off today in an afternoon game starting at 1 PM. The Leafs have multiple game-time decisions, but the team has been playing well through 3 games of a Rielly suspension. The team will look to push through another game with their depleted roster in hopes of reaching 4 consecutive wins.

3rd in the Atlantic, 10th in the NHL
Leafs to Keep an Eye on:
- Auston Matthews has 48 goals in 52 games this season and has two back-to-back hat-tricks. Matthews is on pace for 75 goals this season and will look to be a difference maker once again today.
- Bobby McMann has also been playing quite well lately. He scored a hat-trick against the Blues last week after starting the day as one of the healthy scratches. McMann has 5 goals in his last 3 games and is looking to add to that total as he looks to prove himself as an important part of this roster.
- Marshall Rifai got called up to the Leafs with many of the team’s defensive core banged up. Rifai has been solid with the Marlies and plays a physical and defensive game. Keep an eye on Rifai, should he draw into the lineup today.
