Calgary Flames @ Toronto Maple Leafs
7:30 PM on Sportsnet Ontario and Sportsnet West
The Flames and the Maple Leafs have faced each other eight times, and the Leafs have won six, lost two and taken 12 points away from the experience. In one of those games, newly acquired David Rittich pitched a shutout for the Flames.
Normally, the days after the trade deadline involve the excitement of playing newly acquired players, or if you’re a team like the Flames, finally forcing the coach to play the younger players after some of the roster is traded away. The need for cross-border quarantine has changed that, so Rittich is the only acquisition who will be available until some time next week.

A strong third period comeback bid fell just short as the Laval Rocket fell to the Toronto Marlies 4-3 at the Coca Cola Coliseum on Friday night.
Jesse Ylönen, Josh Brook, and Joseph Blandisi each had a goal, while the last two added and assists in the loss, which ended a three-game road trip for the Rocket. The two teams will meet again Sunday at the Bell Centre in Montreal.
The game started off with a bang. Just 23 seconds into the game, Scott Sabourin drove to the net. He collided with Rocket goaltender Cayden Primeau, and after Lukas Vejdemo went up to him, he started throwing punches. Vejdemo got two minutes for roughing, but Sabourin got five for fighting, two for goaltender interference, and a game misconduct for being the aggressor.
