Stone has not played since suffering a wrist injury on October 18th, and few updates have been shared during his absence. That said, he was a full participant at Wednesday's morning skate and will return to the lineup against his former team, the Ottawa Senators. The 33-year-old Stone was off to another terrific start before his injury, with 13 points (2G / 11A) in six games. He is expected to play on a line with Mitch Marner and return to a role on the top powerplay unit.

Marchenko did not play on Monday and will miss a second straight game, day-to-day with a lower-body injury. The 25-year-old Marchenko has been terrific this season and his offense will be sorely missed. He has 22 points (8G / 14A) and 65 shots in 22 games this season.

McCann has not played since October 20th and few details have been shared about his injury, but he has been practicing the last two weeks, and could return to the lineup on Wednesday against the Dallas Stars. The 29-year-old McCann has four points (3G / 1A) in five games this season.

Durzi has not played since the second game of the season, recovering from an upper-body injury, but will return to the lineup on Wednesday against the Montreal Canadiens. The 27-year-old Durzi was solid in limited action with Utah last season, scoring 11 points (4G / 7A) in 30 games. Dmitri Simashev will be a healthy scratch to accommodate Durzi's return.

Dostal is battling an upper-body injury and will miss at least one game. Expect Petr Mrazek to see the bulk of the action while Dostal is sidelined. The 25-year-old Dostal has a serviceable 2.81 GAA and .904 SV% in 17 games this season (11-5-1).

Playing predominantly alongside superstar Connor Bedar, Burakovsky has shown that evasive scoring tough through 18 games this season, scoring 15 points (7G / 8A).

Matthews has not played since suffering a lower-body injury from a Nikita Zadorov hit two weeks ago, but has been practicing for a week and will return to the lineup on Wednesday against the Columbus Blue Jackets. The 28-year-old Matthews has not been as dynamic as in previous seasons, but his goal-scoring prowess has been greatly missed by a Maple Leafs team that has lost seven of its last eight games (1-4-3). Matthews has 14 points (9G / 5A) through 17 games. Expect him to play on a line with Matthew Knies, who is also returning from a multi-game absence due to an injury.
