OTTAWA — Craig Berube is standing pat — with a slight adjustment.

The Maple Leafs head coach will go with the same lineup for Game 6 of his team’s first-round playoff series against the Ottawa Senators despite consecutive losses that cut Toronto’s lead to 3-2.

Berube had the option to bring forwards Nick Robertson or David Kampf out of the press box, but said he’s liked a lot about the team’s overall performance despite recent results.

Veteran forward Max Pacioretty was promoted to the second line beside John Tavares and William Nylander at Thursday’s morning skate.
