Grebyonkin was the fifth-round pick of the Maple Leafs in the 2022 NHL Entry Draft. The 20-year-old right winger has played part of the last four seasons in the KHL, including a 2023-24 campaign where he tallied 41 points (19G / 22A) in 67 games with Magnitogorsk Metallurg.
Dewar has picked up one assist in three games to open the series but will come out of the lineup with William Nylander expected to make his series debut. Nicholas Robertson will move down to the fourth line to replace Dewar next to David Kampf and Ryan Reaves.
Liljegren will be replaced by TJ Brodie in the lineup for Game 4. Head coach Sheldon Keefe said that Liljegren has not been 100 percent, which is the reason he's the one coming out to make room for Brodie.
Nylander has missed the first three games of the series with an undisclosed ailment but is expected to play in Game 4. Nylander had the best regular season of his career, compiling 98 points (40G / 58A) in 82 games and was close to a point-per-game (10 points in 11 games) during last year's playoffs. Expect Connor Dewar to be scratched to make room for Nylander.
Nylander was very short in answering any media questions in regards to the migraines that have kept him out for the first three games of the playoffs but was a full participant in practice Friday and will be a game-time decision for Game 4 Saturday vs. Boston. The 27-year-old completed his second-straight 82-game season this year and had a career-high 40 goals, 98 points and 312 SOG while averaging 19:54 TOI/GP.
After playing all 82 games this season, Nylander will now miss the first three games of the playoffs due to an undisclosed injury. Nylander had another terrific season with the Maple Leafs, scoring 98 points (40G / 58A). He will now have another three days to recover and potentially make his playoff debut as Game 4 is not scheduled to take place until Saturday night.
With Willian Nylander (undisclosed) looking like a possibility to return to the lineup in game three, Robertson will serve as a healthy scratch. Through two playoff games, Robertson is averaging only 8:00 time-on-ice but has fired six shots on goal.
After playing all 82 games this season, Nylander did not play the first two games of the playoffs due to an undisclosed injury but is looking more and more likely to make his series debut in game three against the Boston Bruins after taking part in the morning skate. He was caught after with the extras so his status is still up in the air. Nylander had another terrific season with the Maple Leafs, scoring 98 points (40G / 58A), and will add a sizeable offensive punch to their lineup.
Nylander played a full 82 games in each of the last two seasons but did not play in Toronto's 5-1 Game 1 loss to the Boston Bruins and is unavailable again for Game 2. There hasn't been much information on what is ailing Nylander but he is considered day-to-day and could be an option in game three on Wednesday.
Nylander played a full 82 games in each of the last two seasons but did not play in Toronto's 5-1 game one loss to the Boston Bruins. There hasn't been much information on what is ailing Nylander but he is considered day-to-day and could be an option in game two on Monday night.
Nylander played a full 82 games in each of the last two seasons but will miss Game 1 in Boston. There hasn't been much information on what is ailing Nylander or if it will keep him out longer. For now, consider him day-to-day and hope the Maple Leafs provide some clarity on this mysterious situation.
Hakanpaa, who missed the final 13 games of the regular season, will miss game 1 vs. the Golden Knights. With Hakanpaa still sidelined, expect Nils Lundkvist to remain on the third pair for game 1. The Stars are hopeful that the veteran blueliner will be able to return to the lineup later in round 1.
Nylander was not on the ice for Friday's practice and the Maple Leafs were non-committal about his availability for Game 1. This is likely gamesmanship more than anything, I don't think there's any real concern that Nylander won't be available for Saturday's contest.
Hakanpää missed the final 13 games of the regular season and seems unlikely to play in Game 1 vs. the Golden Knights. However, the Stars are hopeful that he'll play later in the series.
Domi missed the final two games of the regular season but will play in Game 1 vs. the Bruins on Saturday. Domi finished the season strong, scoring two goals with 13 assists (15 points) in his final 17 games of the season. He should continue to skate on the top line with Auston Matthews as well as PP2 in Game 1.
Webber was the 99th overall pick of the Carolina Hurricanes in the 2019 NHL Entry Draft. The 23-year-old defenseman has spent the last four seasons playing collegiate hockey with Boston University and scored six points (0G / 6A) in 38 games in the 2023-24 campaign.
