Craig Berube, head coach of the Maple Leafs, is sticking with the same lineup for Game 6 of the playoffs against the Ottawa Senators, despite recent back-to-back losses that trimmed Toronto's series lead to 3-2. Berube has opted against making changes with forwards Nick Robertson and David Kampf, reflecting his confidence in the team's overall performance.

Max Pacioretty has been elevated to the second line, joining John Tavares and William Nylander, as the Maple Leafs look to rebound after Ottawa's strong comeback, winning two consecutive games. The Senators are aiming to achieve a rare feat, seeking to become only the fourth team in NHL history to win a best-of-seven series after trailing 3-0.
