Randy Carlyle was less than pleased with his teams most recent effort, and he hopes to see a better effort when his Toronto Maple Leafs host the rebuilding Buffalo Sabres in Tuesdays clash at Air Canada Centre. Viewers in the Leafs region can catch the game on TSN4 starting at 7:30pm et/4:30pm pt. You can also listen to the game on TSN Radio 1050. Toronto fell to 3-4-1 on the season after losing 4-1 in Saturdays home test against the Boston Bruins. It was the Maple Leafs third loss in four games and dropped the clubs home record this season to 1-4-0. The head coach made sure his feelings were known following another disappointing effort from his troops. Frustration, anger ... that is the two things that were front-and-center from a coaching staffs perspective, Carlyle said. Toronto fell behind 1-0 just 3:27 into the game and the Bruins would build the lead to four goals before Richard Panik finally got the Leafs on the board with 5:33 remaining in the third period. We didnt win too many battles early in the hockey game, said Carlyle. Probably for the first 30 minutes we didnt move our feet and execute. It was like the Bruins had the puck and we struggled to get it back. Jonathan Bernier stopped 21-of-25 shots before being pulled in the third period. Bernier will get the start tonight. Toronto hopes to take advantage of a young Sabres team that is just 2-7-0 on the season and has been outscored by a 29-11 margin so far in 2014-15. Buffalo, however, is coming off a victory, notching a 2-1 road win Saturday in San Jose. The Maple Leafs won three of five meetings against Buffalo last season and has claimed five of the last eight tests in this series. The Sabres have dropped four straight and nine of their past 10 games at Air Canada Centre. Buffalo had been shut out three times during a four-game slide before coming through with Saturdays surprising win over the Sharks. Michal Neuvirth made 29 saves to earn his first win of the season and Nicolas Deslauriers netted the deciding goal early in the third period to help the Sabres win for the first time since Oct. 14 at Carolina. Its a huge win for me and everybody on this team. We worked really hard for this, Neuvirth offered. Cody Hodgson also lit the lamp in the final stanza for the Sabres, who hope to win two straight for the first time since last February when they close out a four-game road trip tonight. Neuvirth will get the start again tonight. He is 1-2-0 with a 3.02 goals against average this season and 5-3-1 with a 2.96 GAA in 11 career games versus Toronto.

The first of the three games will be played in Week 4, when the Oakland Raiders will take on the Miami Dolphins on Sept.PHILADELPHIA - The Toronto Maple Leafs loaded up on youth and gambled on the future at the NHL draft Saturday. But they also looked after the present, acquiring Roman Polak from the St. Louis Blues for fellow defenceman Carl Gunnarsson and the 94th pick in Saturdays draft. At six foot and 236 pounds, Polak is a wide body. "He makes people pay a price," said Toronto president Brendan Shanahan. "Hes honest but hes tough. Hes a hard-worker, hes a low-maintenance guy." "Hes going to provide a little bit of edge. A tough guy to play against," added GM Dave Nonis. The 28-year-old Czech native has 79 points in 424 NHL games, including four goals and nine assists last season. Nonis said Polak would probably "play in the (No.) 4-5 hole" on defence. "We envision him having a pretty significant impact on our back end," he said. Despite his size, Polak can also skate. "People who dont think he has skating ability really arent watching," said Shanahan. Gunnarsson, a 2007 seventh-rounder, had spent five seasons with the Leafs and played with captain Dion Phaneuf on the teams top defensive pairing. Gunnarssons departure opens the door to Jake Gardner and sophomore Morgan Rielly to step up the depth chart. "Those guys are going to have to take steps forward," said Nonis. "It might be a lot to ask for Morgan in his second year but he made some pretty big strides last year. And we would expect that hell take some more next (year). I think Jake is a good possibility as well. "Again that will be up to Randy (coach Randy Carlyle) to see what he wants to do wwith that.dddddddddddd But we feel there are other people that can play that role effectively with Dion." The Leafs piled pressure on their goalies last season, giving up shots in high numbers. Change was needed. "We liked our defence individually. We didnt necessarily like how they fit together last year. So we wanted to move some pieces and change the look, rebuild it a little bit. I wouldnt say its a major overhaul by doing something like this but it does give us a different element and its a player we didnt really have." A right-handed shot, Polak also fills a void on the Toronto blue-line. Nonis sees Petter Granberg, listed at six foot three and 200 pounds, as a similar-style player to Polak. But the Swede is just 21 and has played only one game for the Leafs. "To ask him to play that way and fit in as a top-six (defenceman) right away, I think might be difficult," he said. "If he does that, great, then we have even more options there." Nonis said the Leafs will "be active" during the free agency period. "If theres a fit there, I wouldnt rule out adding a defenceman and/or a forward," he said. "But I wouldnt promise it either." Toronto took Russian winger Rinat Valiev of the Kootenay Ice in the third round (68th overall), USHL winger John Piccinich in the fourth round (103rd overall), USHL centre Dakota Joseph in the fifth (128th overall), USHL winger Nolan Vesey in the sixth (158th overall) and Swedish winger Pierre Engvall in the seventh (188th). The Leafs used their first-round pick Friday night to take Swedish winger William Nylander eighth overall. ' ' '
