The Maple Leafs have placed Jake Muzzin (foot) on IR.
Muzzin is week-to-week with a broken foot and his move to IR opened up a roster spot for the Maple Leafs to activate Andreas Johnsson, who is listed as a game-time decision for Sunday's game.

Tavares has missed the last six games with a broken finger but was a full participant in the Maple Leafs' practice on Friday and he is "hopeful" to play on Saturday. Toronto went 2-2-2 without Tavares and he comes back with seven points (3G / 4A) in eight games, whenever he's healthy.
