The Toronto Maple Leafs are making a few changes to their lineup for Thursday’s matchup against the Ottawa Senators.

Forward Zach Hyman will not dress and is considered day-to-day with an injury. Nic Petan will join the lineup instead. Head coach Sheldon Keefe said Hyman is banged up and appeared to be in discomfort after blocking a shot off his foot late in Wednesday’s win over the Senators.

Mikko Lehtonen will draw in for Zach Bogosian on defence with the Leafs playing on back-to-back nights.

Toronto will turn to Michael Hutchinson for the first time this season after starter Frederik Andersen made 10 straight starts. Hutchinson took over the backup job with Jack Campbell sidelined with a leg injury.
