Timothy Liljegren looks to be returning to the lineup, replacing TJ Brodie after being a healthy scratch on Saturday.
Since being held pointless in games one and two, Mitch Marner has two points in his last two games.
John Tavares will look to build momentum tonight. The Maple Leafs captain has only one point in this series.
