It's a reunion night in Columbus as the Toronto Maple Leafs take on the Columbus Blue Jackets for Game 11 of the 2026-27 NHL season! Zack Phillips gets you set for puck drop with a full Leafs vs. Blue Jackets game preview, breaking down Matthew Knies facing his former team, Kirill Marchenko's return to Columbus, the latest lineup news, keys to the game, best bets and more!
The Maple Leafs are coming off a much-needed 3-1 victory over the San Jose Sharks, highlighted by Gavin McKenna's game-winning power-play goal, Auston Matthews' three-point performance and a strong outing from Sergei Bobrovsky. Now Toronto looks to build on that momentum and win consecutive games for the first time this season as it wraps up a back-to-back set on the road.
The biggest storyline is the first meeting between the Maple Leafs and Blue Jackets since the blockbuster trade that sent Matthew Knies to Columbus and brought Kirill Marchenko to Toronto. Zack breaks down the emotional return for Marchenko, what to expect from Knies against his former teammates, and how both players have settled into their new teams. It's also a milestone night for Auston Matthews, who is set to play his 700th career NHL game.
Plus, Anthony Stolarz gets the start in goal against Jet Greaves, while John Tavares and Chris Tanev remain sidelined with injuries. Zack discusses Toronto's projected lineup, Gavin McKenna's growing confidence following his big night against San Jose, and how the Leafs can contain a Columbus attack featuring Knies, Adam Fantilli, Kent Johnson and Zach Werenski.
Stick around for Zack's keys to the game, best bets, predictions and everything you need to know ahead of Leafs vs. Blue Jackets!
