The Toronto Maple Leafs will turn to goaltender Jonathan Bernier to start for the third time in five days.

He is expected to get the nod Saturday night against the Detroit Red Wings, as initially reported by Jonas Siegel of TSN 1050.

Bernier stopped 26-of-28 shots in a 5-2 win over the Tampa Bay Lightning on Thursday. He was pulled after one period in the Leafs' 9-2 loss to the Nashville Predators on Tuesday.
