"The Toronto Maple Leafs are trying to avoid being eliminated on home ice Monday night against the Boston Bruins. One of the keys to avoid elimination will be to stay out of the penalty box and shutting down the Bruins top line once again. Leafs head coach Mike Babcock has stuck to his guns and William Nylander will be on the fourth line skating with Tomas Plekanec and Andreas Johnsson. Everything else remains the same as Nazem Kadri will skate between Patrick Marleau and Mitch Marner while Auston Matthews will skate with Zach Hyman and Connor Brown. While it could be looked at as a demotion for Nylander, when you look at the Leafs lineup right now, it's pretty stacked and they don't really have a "fourth line". Here's tonight's full expected lineup:FORWARDSHyman - Matthews - Brown Marleau - Kadri - Marner van Riemsdyk - Bozak - Kapanen Johnsson - Plekanec - NylanderDEFENSIVE PAIRINGS Rielly - Hainsey Gardiner - Zaitsev Dermott - Polak GOALIESAndersen McElhinney "
