Breaking: Important Lineup Change for the Maple Leafs Ahead of Game Two
Sheldon Keefe announced that Sam Lafferty will take the place of Zach Aston-Reese tonight.
Mike Stephens reported:
"Keefe says Lafferty's speed is a big reason why he's coming back in tonight."
"We didn't intend to keep him out for the two games, but that's just how it played out."
Lafferty has played five games since the playoffs started and has only managed to score one assist.
He will be a great asset for the Leafs' bottom-six, using his speed against the fast Panthers.
