The Toronto Maple Leafs are taking on the Montreal Canadiens tonight. One team is looking to get ready for the playoffs, while the other is in the basement of the eastern conference.

Ahead of the game, Toronto made some roster moves sending down goaltender Joseph Woll and calling up forward Wayne Simmonds for what could be his final NHL game, take a look:
Simmonds has had a tough season this year, seldom getting into any game action, could this be his final curtain call if he decides to hang them up?
One thing about Simmonds is he's is and always has been a team guy. Even when he's not playing. It would make sense for the make sense for the Leafs to send him off the right way.
If this call up is indeed his last, he'll have played a total of 1037 NHL games including tonight across his 15 year career for 6 teams.
