Toronto Maple Leafs News

Rielly will miss his second straight game with an upper-body injury, so Connor Carrick and Jake Gardiner will continue to patrol the Maple Leafs’ power-play units. Rielly remains day-to-day and questionable for Wednesday’s game in Chicago.

Muzzin has missed the last three games with an undisclosed injury but he took a regular rotation at even strength and on the power-play in Wednesday’s practice, so look for him to play tomorrow. Muzzin has had a nice year, picking up 23 points (3G / 20A), 90 shots and 80 blocked shots in 41 games.

Shaw was a healthy scratch in Los Angeles on Saturday and was placed on waivers on Sunday after the Ducks claimed J.T. Brown from the Lightning. Shaw has just two goals and six assists (eight points) in 42 games with the Ducks.

Tanev missed the last two games after taking a puck to the mouth in Toronto last Saturday. Tanev has missed a lot of time due to injuries this season but provides a big boost to the Canucks blueline when he’s in. However, he doesn’t boast the best offensive numbers, having scoring just two goals with four assist in 27 games this season.

Tanev will miss his second straight game after being hit in the face by a shot in Saturday’s game in Toronto. Tanev did however skate this morning with a full cage on, so he might be ready for Friday’s game in Columbus.

Muzzin was originally listed as questionable for tonight's game but after being placed on IR he certainly won't be in the lineup against the Predators. The Kings moved him to IR to make room for Christian Folin to be activated, so he will take Muzzin's spot in the lineup.

Muzzin missed the Kings morning skate and is listed as a game-time decision because he is “a little banged up.” Monitor Muzzin’s status as the Kings hit the ice for pre-game warmups at 10:00 p.m. ET.

Benning was a healthy scratch on Tuesday but will replace Brandon Davidson in the lineup vs. the Ducks. Benning has nine points (4G / 5A) in 36 games this season.

Tanev has missed the last seven games with a groin issue, but will replace Ben Hutton in the lineup vs. Anaheim. Tanev has just six points (2G / 4A) in 25 games this season but does a lot for the Canucks blueline while eating up over 20 minutes a night.

Tanev returned to practice on Wednesday but is not quite ready to play. Tanev will miss his sixth straight game but it looks like he’s trending towards a return on Saturday.

The undrafted free agent has registered seven goals and 10 assists (17 points) in 30 games in his first season in the AHL. Kampf came over from the Czech league, where he had 31 points (15G / 16A) in 52 games with Chomutov Pirati last year.

Matthews has missed the last six games with a concussion but will be back on the Maple Leafs top-line tonight. He will skate with Zach Hyman and William Nylander in New York and comes in with 26 points (13G / 13A) in 26 games this season.

Matthews has missed the last six games but was back skating on the top line between William Nylander and Zach Hyman at Friday’s practice and is hopeful that he will play tomorrow vs. the Rangers. The Maple Leafs went 2-4-0 without Matthews in the lineup. If he plays, he brings 13 goals and 13 assists (26 points) in 26 games this season.
