Tomorrow 7 p.m. EDT.

Scotiabank Arena, Toronto, ONT.

The Toronto Maple Leafs kick off their season tomorrow night against their Ontario rivals, the Ottawa Senators.

The Sens. finished the preseason 3-2-1.

The Leafs had a really good preseason, finishing 5-3.

Craig Anderson is in net for Ottawa and Frederik Anderson is in net for Toronto tomorrow night.

Thomas Chabot of the Senators is the player to watch tomorrow.

Chabot recently signed an eight-year contract with Ottawa.

As for the Leafs, they've got a strong offence again with John Tavares, Auston Matthews, and Mitch Marner in the lineup.

I'm interested to see how veteran, Jason Spezza is going to fit into the equation this year.

Is Spezza going to help the Leafs offensively?

Christian Wolenin - Shoulder - Indefinitely,

Marian Gaborik - Back - Indefinitely,
