Toronto Maple Leafs News

Muzzin had to be stretchered off of the ice late in the Maple Leafs' 3-0 win over the Blue Jackets in Game 2 and was immediately taken to hospital. This situation gets even more murky with Muzzin having to leave the NHL bobble. Chris Johnston of SportsNet reported that "medical officials will make the call on how long he'd have to quarantine if and when he's ready to return. It will depend on where he goes, how long he's gone and how much risk he's exposed to."

Domi sat out the first week of Phase 3 while deciding whether or not he will play in the Qualifying Round. Domi is at an increased risk as a Type-1 diabetic, so he took extra time to make his decision on the NHL's Return to Play program. During his first practice with the team, Domi took part in some drills and was featured on the second power-play unit.

Merzlikins exploded onto the scene in his first year in North America, going 13-9-8 with a 2.35 GAA, .923 SV% and five shutouts. Merzlikins went on an eight-game winning streak from mid-January to mid-February and was hurt right before the season paused. This signing comes less than a week after Columbus signed Joonas Korpisalo to a two-year, $5.6 million extension ($2.8M AAV), so they've got their young goaltending duo tied up for the next two seasons at a $6.9M AAV cap-hit.

This announcement comes a few hours after the Flyers labelled Myers as a game-time decision for tonight's game, which obviously isn't the case anymore. Myers should be ready for the start of the playoffs but will be replaced by Shayne Gostisbehere tonight.

Rielly will play for the first time since January 12th and will be back on the top-pair with Cody Ceci and the second power-play unit. Rielly returns with 27 points (3G / 24A) in 46 games this season.

Myers was back on the ice for Tuesday's optional morning skate after leaving Monday's practice while dealing with the aftereffects of blocking a shot on Saturday. Myers is considered a game-time decision and will be replaced by Shayne Gostisbehere if he can't play.

Bobrovsky will miss his fourth straight game with a four-game with a lower-body injury as he continues to cede the starting duties to Chris Driedger. Monitor Bobrovsky's status for Thursday game in Dallas.

Bobrovsky was a late-scratch on Sunday and missed Tuesday's practice, putting his status for Thursday's game in doubt. If Bobrovsky isn't available vs. the Bruins, Chris Driedger comes back from the AHL and will join Sam Montembeault as the Panthers' temporary goaltending duo.

Rielly has been out since January 12th with a fractured foot but is expected to be back in the lineup next week. The Maple Leafs have gone 11-7-2 in 20 games since Rielly got hurt.

Bobrovsky was scheduled to start vs. the Flames but "tweaked" something during warmups which led to Samuel Montembeault getting the nod for the Panthers. If the Panthers want a chance at making the playoffs, they need a healthy Bobrovsky. Luckily they're off until Thursday, so he should be good-to-go.
