"The Toronto Maple Leafs will have just one game over the next eight days which could be a blessing in disguise.
Not only could players like goaltender Frederik Andersen use the rest, but this will also be a good chance for the Leafs to put some work on the practice ice. The team needs the extra practice as its in the midst of a four-game losing streak.
«The bottom line is you've got to get it turned around,» Babcock said, per Maple Leafs Hot Stove. «You can't continue to lose hockey games. I think, on the start of this trip, we were playing alright. I didn't think we played well at all against Washington and were out-played and slapped around. I didn't think tonight's game… it was kind of a weird game, to say the least. The puck went in our net and it went in our net frequently, and we weren't able to recover.
«I just want us to play at the top of our game each and every night. Even though we want that all the time, that's not necessarily going to happen all the time. We've just got to get back to work. We have a little hiatus this week. We'll get back to work and get our guys freshened up and get ready to play a good Pittsburgh team.»
Has this recent stretch of games got you worried about the Maple Leafs postseason chances?"
