A pair of Leafs will not travel with the team; Mrazek gets the nod on Monday in Columbus
After yet another lackluster performance in goal from Jack Campbell on Saturday night, Sheldon Keefe appears to be going with the one on, one off strategy, hoping that one of his netminders can win a big one and gain some confidence.
After allowing 5 goals to the Vancouver Canucks on Saturday, Jack Campbell will play back up to Petr Mrazek on Monday when the Leafs play the Columbus Blue Jackets on the road, looking to snap a 2-game losing skid.
Unfortunately for the Buds, neither Ondrej Kase nor Rasmus Sandin will be available to travel with the team this afternoon. Kase was placed on IR late Saturday evening with an upper-body injury. It is expected that rookie Nick Robertson will slot in alongside John Tavares and William Nylander again on Monday.
As for Sandin, he has missed a pair of practices and one game with an unspecified illness. Travis Dermott skated alongside Ilya Lyubushkin on the team's third pair at practice on Sunday.
