Following a difficult three-game road trip, the Toronto Maple Leafs get what appears to be a little bit of a breather on Tuesday.
The Maple Leafs return home to face lottery-bound Detroit, a team they have defeated three times in three tries this season.
Toronto encountered three playoff teams during its trip last week. The Maple Leafs were blown out 8-1 by the Tampa Bay Lightning on Tuesday then fell 3-2 to the Florida Panthers in overtime Saturday in the first game of a back-to-back. On Sunday, they pulled out a 4-3 shootout win at Washington.
The Maple Leafs (52-21-7, 111 points), who finish up the regular season with a home game against the Boston Bruins on Friday, are firmly in second place in the Atlantic Division. Their first-round playoff opponent will be determined this week.
Backup goal Erik Kallgren was up to the task in the seven-round shootout Sunday after surrendering eight goals to the Lightning in his previous start.
Toronto’s top offensive threats didn’t score against the Capitals, but others picked up the slack. Ilya Lyubushkin, Ilya Mikheyev and Jason Spezza tallied the regulation goals, while Spezza and Alex Kerfoot found the back of the net in the shootout.
The Leafs trailed 3-1 through the third period. Mikheyev brought them within one goal at 12:36 of the third and Spezza scored in the final minute after Kallgren was pulled for an extra skater.
Auston Matthews hasn’t scored in any of the past five games but remains the league leader with 58 goals. His teammates have 60 in mind.
On Sunday, Detroit (31-39-10, 72 points) began a three-game road trip to close out its season, earning a 3-0 victory over the New Jersey Devils. Alex Nedeljkovic needed just 17 saves to collect his fourth shutout.
The Wings bounced back from a 7-2 loss to Pittsburgh in their home finale on Saturday.
The Wings will complete their season with another road game against the Devils on Friday.
