But he also spotted an opportunity to try and continue building up his backup goaltender.Edmonton Oilers

The Leafs are mindful of the potential to overplay Andersen this season, and are still feeling their way through the situation with his backup. He certainly didn’t have any real chance on Connor McDavid’s jaw-dropping individual effort in the third period, a goal you’ll be seeing on end-of-year highlight reels.

If nothing else, the team’s 15-5-1 run under Keefe has bought more time for evaluation. The coach seemed to hint that Hutchinson could be in line for additional starts in situations where the Leafs aren’t facing a back-to-back — perhaps like next week’s visit by the New Jersey Devils. Keefe was trying to send a wake-up call to his players — not the team’s MVP and a man headed to the all-star game later this month. Andersen was the sole reason the score was just 1-0 against McDavid’s wrecking crew after 20 minutes, but when defensive breakdowns allowed Edmonton to pop in two quick goals early in the second period, the coach felt the need to act.
