Toronto Maple Leafs head coach Craig Berube makes an unexpected roster decision of tonight's matchup against the New Jersey Devils. Craig Berube has had to rework his lineup numerous times this season to account for a continuous piling-up of injured players in the Toronto Maple Leafs roster.

On today's episode of The College Football Enquirer, Dan Wetzel, Ross Dellenger and SI's Pat Forde discuss the biggest headlines heading into the National Championship between Notre Dame and Ohio State. They cover the North taking over Atlanta, Marcus Freeman receiving NFL interest and Ryan Day's comments at his latest press conference.

These are tough times, suddenly, around the Toronto Maple Leafs. They’ve had three straight regulation losses for the first time all season, and now there’s an injury to John Tavares. Tavares left practice in obvious discomfort on Wednesday afternoon after getting awkwardly tied up with Chris Tanev during a power-play drill.

The Toronto Maple Leafs centre got his feet tangled with defenceman Chris Tanev and fell awkwardly to the ice. Tavares stayed down before skating off the ice hunched over in pain. It didn't look good. The Leafs revealed the initial diagnosis some 24 hours later.

With Tavares out for at least four games, a Maple Leafs team that was already light on centre depth will now see its options tested.

Toronto Maple Leafs forward John Tavares was placed on injured reserve with a lower-body ailment on Thursday and is considered week-to-week, head coach Craig Berube said.
