Without 19:
Lucic - Ryan - Gaudreau
Mangiapane - Lindholm - Phillips
Dube - Monahan - Backlund
Rinaldo - Rieder - Frolik
Man this team has so many players that deserve spots in the lineup! I guess that's a good problem to have!

No. No reason or right now.
Phillips will get his shot, and with the team not travelling until tomorrow there is likely no practice tomorrow meaning that Phillips hasn’t even had a practice with the team yet.
No reason to try to shoehorn him into the lineup in the middle of a 6 game winning streak, especially in a high pressure, media heavy game like the Leafs.
