The Toronto Sun previews the Leafs' three-game swing through Alberta and British Columbia, pointing out ten Leafs are from the Prairie provinces and B.C.
"There are a lot of guys on this team looking forward to getting there and having their families come out and see the games," said Sicamous, B.C.'s Cody Franson.
"It's fun, with the new alignment, that we get to play in every city again."
For captain Dion Phaneuf, Edmonton-born and NHL-trained with the Flames, the first part of the week holds the most significance.
"Going home to Edmonton and playing there is special to me. I played a lot of hockey out in (Alberta). It's a special part of the schedule, but we also have to go in there and win some games, too," Phaneuf said.
