With Ondrej Kase still out, Anderson will draw into the lineup on Wednesday. Anderson had seven points (5G / 2A) in 13 games with the Marlies (AHL) this season and has 13 points (8G / 5A) in 53 career NHL games.

Kurashev was a healthy scratch in Calgary on Tuesday but will draw back into the lineup on Friday. Kurashev has two assists in his last three games, but just five assists in 17 games this season.

With Athanasiou unavailable vs. the Maple Leafs, Rasmus Kupari should play after previously being scheduled to be scratched. Former Maple Leaf, Carl Grundstrom is another option.

Kurashev played just 6:25 TOI on Sunday and will be scratched tonight after "too many turnovers lately" according to head coach Derek King.




Martinez will miss his second straight game on Tuesday but his status beyond then has not been determined. Monitor his status leading up to Thursday's game vs. the Red Wings.


It looks as if Smith will be a healthy scratch in Saturday afternoon's game in New Jersey. Smith has struggled this season, failing to record a point in eight games. Karson Kuhlman will draw into the lineup to replace Smith.
