Robertson will draw back into Toronto's lineup Wednesday after missing the last four games as a healthy scratch. The 21-year-old highly touted prospect has enjoyed a good start to his season through 10 games, picking up two goals, five points and 18 SOG while playing limited time while averaging 11:19 TOI.
Rielly was involved in an away-from-the-puck collision with Kyle Palmieri Monday night which caused him to leave the contest after playing only 16:26 TOI due to a knee injury. It was announced Tuesday that he will head to the long-term injured reserve which is a huge loss as the Maple Leafs are already without T.J. Brodie and Jake Muzzin. Rielly was enjoying a strong 2022-23 prior to the injury, with 16 assists through 20 games played prior to the injury.
Pezzetta has been in and out of the Canadiens lineup all year playing limited minutes (10:23) while filling a fourth-line role, picking up zero points and three SOG through two games. He will enter Montreal's lineup Tuesday after being a healthy scratch in their last game.
Muzzin was hurt on October 17th and will be sidelined until late February. If Muzzin misses the rest of the regular season, the Maple Leafs can use his $5.625M cap hit to make additions.
Lorentz missed the Sharks' previous game due to being a healthy scratch but will draw back into the lineup Friday after only missing one game. In 14 games so far in 2022-23, the 26-year-old has a goal and three points with 24 SOG and a -3 plus/minus.
Lorentz will head to the press box for the first time this season as a healthy scratch Thursday. The 26-year-old has a goal and three points through 14 games played this season while averaging only 12:35 ATOI in a bottom-six role with the Sharks.
Pezzetta made his season debut on October 29th against the Blues, playing only 11:04 TOI in the Canadiens' win. The 24-year-old heads back to the press box as Montreal make room for Jonathan Drouin.
Muzzin is out indefinitely with a neck injury that he suffered on October 17th. The move to LTIR gives the Maple Leafs $5.625M in salary relief, which would be enough to activate Matt Murray from LTIR when he's healthy.
Carlo suffered a concussion when the Bruins played the Arizona Coyotes on October 15th. Through his two games played in 2022-23, he has zero points and four PIMs. The Bruins will be very happy to see his return as they look to continue their winning ways.
