The Maple Leafs also hope to rebound tonight after losing a 3-2 decision to Arizona on Tuesday. That snapped a three-game winning streak for Toronto and was the clubs first regulation road loss of the season (3-1-1). James Reimer made his second straight start in net, ending with 30 saves. However, he was beaten for a pair of goals in the first period and Toronto trailed by three before getting power-play tallies from Dion Phaneuf and Cody Franson. Terrible start and we just werent able to overcome it, said Toronto head coach Randy Carlyle. It seemed like we were in neutral and they were in third gear. Phil Kessel assisted on both goals, giving him a pair of tallies and six assists over a four-game point streak. He is tied for third in the NHL with 16 points. Bernier has faced the Avalanche just once before as a starter while also making a relief appearance against them. The Maple Leafs picked up their second straight win over the Avalanche with a 3-2 overtime victory at home on Oct. 14. Kessel scored the winner 34 seconds into the extra frame and Reimer finished with 22 saves. Toronto has won three straight in Colorado. Varlamov stopped 37 shots for the Avs in the teams 5-2 loss to the Vancouver Canucks Tuesday night. Stunned in the third period last time out, the Colorado Avalanche hope to rebound on Thursday night and avoid a fourth straight setback as they welcome the Toronto Maple Leafs to Pepsi Center. The Avs hosted the Vancouver Canucks on Tuesday and went up 2-0 on first- period goals by John Mitchell and Jamie McGinn, but the Canucks responded with five straight tallies, including four in the third period to hand Colorado a 5-2 loss. Semyon Varlamov stopped the first 26 shots he faced, but ended up with 32 saves while allowing all five Vancouver goals. The loss dropped Colorado to 0-2-1 in its past three games and 3-6-5 on the season. I mean third period we are up a goal and end up losing 5-2. Its unacceptable to say the least, Mitchell said. We have to be better, we have to find a way. They come out and score a goal early, its 2-2. We cant come out and completely fall apart, you know, shut it down. We have to learn to respond and come out and play hard after that. We just didnt do anything and we certainly didnt help Varly. Colorado also lost defenseman Brad Stuart to a hamstring injury in the game and the ailment could sideline him for the next few weeks. Head coach Patrick Roy has opted to rest Varlamov tonight and will give Reto Berra his fourth straight of the campaign and first since Oct. 21. Berra has never before faced Toronto.
