Foligno was a scratch in Game 3 vs. the Canadiens but could return to the lineup on Tuesday. Head coach Sheldon Keefe called Foligno a game-time decision, so monitor his status as they hit the ice for warmups at 7:00 PM ET.

Bogosian has been out since April 20th but will play in Game 1 vs. the Canadiens. It's unclear who Bogosian will replace but it will likely be Travis Dermott.




Foligno has missed the last two games with an upper-body injury but is expected to play in Ottawa on Wednesday. Foligno was originally listed as a game-time decision on Tuesday but reportedly responded well after yesterday's practice. He skated with John Tavares and William Nylander in practice but has played primarily with Auston Matthew and Mitch Marner to this point, so it's unclear who he will skate with tonight.




Foligno was hurt midway through Monday's game in Montreal and will not play Thursday and will likely miss Saturday's game as well. With Foligno out, Joe Thornton moved up to the top line in Wednesday's practice.




The Maple Leafs will rest a couple of players on Thursday, Nick Foligno being one of them. Pierre Engvall will re-enter the lineup to replace Foligno.

Gambrell will come out of the lineup on Wednesday due to a foot injury. Alexander True will draw in to replace him and centre the third line with Kevin Labanc and Noah Gregor.



Bogosian was knocked out of Tuesday's game in Vancouver and is expected to miss at least one week. With Bogosian out, Rasmus Sandin will remain in the lineup and Travis Dermott will draw back in.

Foligno was acquired from the Blue Jackets at the trade deadline and will suit up Thursday in Winnipeg. Foligno is not the same offensive presence he was in 2015 but could pack a bit of a punch on Thursday, as he debuts on the top line with Auston Matthews and Mitch Marner.
