SENATORS UP FIRST

The Maple Leafs released their sevengame pre-season schedule on Tuesday and it includes a unique feature: a doubleheader. The Leafs will host the Ottawa Senators in an afternoon game, then again in the evening, on Sept. 24 to open the exhibition schedule. The Leafs will then host Montreal on Sept. 28 and visit Belleville to play the Senators on Sept. 30. On Oct. 3, the Leafs will visit Montreal. Then the Leafs will finish the pre-season with a homeand-home series with the Red Wings.
