After extending their season high winning streak to seven games with an impressive road trip, the Toronto Maple Leafs returned to practice today, and brought with them many lineup changes.

Firstly was the return of Calle Jarnkrok, and while he didn't finish practice, his return appears imminent, giving Head Coach Sheldon Keefe yet another big decision to make.
The big change however was on the blue line, with Mark Giordano returning to the lineup in practice, triggering several changes. The veteran was placed on the third pairing alongside William Lagesson, with Timothy Liljegren out of practice, and if Liljegren can't go in tomorrow's game, the veteran blue liner will slot in.
The other change came on the top two pairings, with Jake McCabe slotting in next to TJ Brodie on the top line as Morgan Rielly took his spot on the second line alongside Simon Benoit.
