Myers missed Tuesday's contest in Philadelphia with an undisclosed injury. He draws back into Tampa's third defensive pairing as they head to Florida for their matchup Friday. Through three games in 2022-23, Myers has six SOG while averaging 13:26 TOI.
Benoit has been in and out of the Ducks lineup through the first four games. Thursday will mark the third time he's been scratched in five games. He'll be replaced by Nathan Beaulieu.
Robertson was the victim of a numbers game after a strong preseason showing but is back with the Maple Leafs and will make his season debut on Thursday. Robertson, who has one goal and one assist in 16 career NHL games, will replace Denis Malgin and skate on the second line with John Tavares and William Nylander.
Muzzin will head to the injured reserve after injuring his neck in the Maple Leafs' 4-2 loss to Arizona Monday. It is the third time in four seasons since joining Toronto that Muzzin has missed significant time due to injury. He had one assist with eight SOG through four games before the injury announcement.
Stolarz will get his first start of the 2022-23 season after coming in twice in relief of John Gibson in each of the last two Duck games. He has struggled in relief, allowing three goals on 20 shots. He hopes to return closer to the .919 SV% that he has averaged across his four years in Anaheim.

McCabe was medically cleared early Tuesday by the Chicago Blackhawks indicating the 29-year-old will make his season debut Friday against the Detroit Red Wings. The 10-year veteran sits just one point shy of the 100-point plateau (99 Pts) in his career, with 428 games played under his belt.
Myers is dealing with a minor injury and needs some rest/recovery time, so he'll come out of the lineup vs. the Flyers. Nick Perbix will make his NHL debut in Myers' place.
Nylander missed Sunday's practice but is good to go for Monday's game vs. Arizona. Nylander has enjoyed a strong start to the season, scoring two goals with one assist and 15 shots in three games.
Carlo left Saturday's game against Arizona with an upper-body injury and did not return. The Bruins moved him to IR on Sunday, meaning he'll miss at least three games. Dan Renouf was recalled from Providence (AHL) to replace Carlo in the lineup on Monday.
Nylander missed Sunday's practice due to illness and is questionable to play Monday. With Nylander not available, the Maple Leafs recalled Nick Robertson and he skated on the second line with John Tavares and Denis Malgin. Monitor Nylander's status during the Maple Leafs' morning skate on Monday.
Robertson had a terrific preseason but was sent down because he was waiver exempt and the Maple Leafs were in a cap crunch. With Matt Murray landing on LTIR, the Maple Leafs gained some cap flexibility and wasted no time bringing Robertson back. With William Nylander (illness) not on the ice for Sunday's practice, Robertson skated on a line with John Tavares and Denis Malgin.
The Maple Leafs Captain will return to the lineup for the team's opening game Wednesday against the Montreal Canadiens. The 13-year veteran returns to the team after an oblique injury caused him to miss time since leaving the Leafs' lineup in a preseason game on September 24th. Tavares enjoyed a decent 2021-22, collecting 27 goals and 76 assists in 79 games. Since joining the Maple Leafs in 2018-19, Tavares has 119 goals and 274 points in 280 games.
Tavares skated with the team for the first time since suffering an oblique strain on September 24th. Tavares' original timeline was three weeks, suggesting he could miss the first four games of the season. Returning to the ice on Monday, albeit in a non-contact jersey, suggests that he may be a little bit ahead of schedule.
Tavares is expected to miss at least the first four games of the regular season with an oblique strain he suffered in training camp. With Tavares sidelined, Alex Kerfoot will likely centre the Maple Leafs' second line, and Pontus Holmberg could open the season with the team.
McCabe underwent surgery on September 13th, so he's expected to be out until late-November/early-December. With McCabe sidelined, look for Riley Stillman and Alex Vlasic to get more work early in the season.
