""They are forming an identity, those three guys right now," Berube said of the Joshua-Roy-McMann line following Wednesday's practice."
""They are all on the same page. You have some good speed out there with Bobby (McMann) getting on pucks, and (Joshua) is really starting to skate now, too. It is the difference in his game for me: his skating.""
""He knows that he has to be better," Berube said. "We put him in the Washington game, and there wasn't a lot there. I thought he struggled in that game. We won the last couple, so I am not going to change the lineup.""
Joseph Woll is confirmed as the Maple Leafs' starter against the Carolina Hurricanes. The lineup remains unchanged after a 4-1 victory over the Florida Panthers that provided strong momentum. A new third line of Dakota Joshua, Nicolas Roy and Bobby McMann has developed noticeable chemistry and is establishing an identity with improved speed and puck activity. Matias Maccelli, Calle Jarnkrok and Dakota Mermis are healthy scratches. Coach Craig Berube noted Maccelli must be better after a quiet Washington game; Maccelli has four goals and nine points in 22 games. Toronto concludes its road trip before returning home to face Montreal.
