Toronto Maple Leafs News
Carlo (upper-body) was placed on IR on Sunday.
Carlo left Saturday's game against Arizona with an upper-body injury and did not return. The Bruins moved him to IR on Sunday, meaning he'll miss at least three games. Dan Renouf was recalled from Providence (AHL) to replace Carlo in the lineup on Monday.
Nylander (illness) is questionable to play Monday vs. the Coyotes.
Nylander missed Sunday's practice due to illness and is questionable to play Monday. With Nylander not available, the Maple Leafs recalled Nick Robertson and he skated on the second line with John Tavares and Denis Malgin. Monitor Nylander's status during the Maple Leafs' morning skate on Monday.
The Maple Leafs recalled Nick Robertson from Toronto (AHL).
Robertson had a terrific preseason but was sent down because he was waiver exempt and the Maple Leafs were in a cap crunch. With Matt Murray landing on LTIR, the Maple Leafs gained some cap flexibility and wasted no time bringing Robertson back. With William Nylander (illness) not on the ice for Sunday's practice, Robertson skated on a line with John Tavares and Denis Malgin.
Tavares is expected to play for the Maple Leafs in their season opener on Wednesday.
The Maple Leafs Captain will return to the lineup for the team's opening game Wednesday against the Montreal Canadiens. The 13-year veteran returns to the team after an oblique injury caused him to miss time since leaving the Leafs' lineup in a preseason game on September 24th. Tavares enjoyed a decent 2021-22, collecting 27 goals and 76 assists in 79 games. Since joining the Maple Leafs in 2018-19, Tavares has 119 goals and 274 points in 280 games.
Blais left Saturday's pre-season game with an upper-body injury and did not return.
Blais opened training camp on a line with Mika Zibanejad and Chris Kreider but has since dropped down the depth chart and is now banged up. Blais shouldn't carry any fantasy value heading into the 2022-23 season. If he misses the Rangers' season opener, expect Vitaly Kravtsov to get into the lineup.
Tavares (oblique) returned to practice on Friday.
Tavares skated with the team for the first time since suffering an oblique strain on September 24th. Tavares' original timeline was three weeks, suggesting he could miss the first four games of the season. Returning to the ice on Monday, albeit in a non-contact jersey, suggests that he may be a little bit ahead of schedule.
Tavares will miss at least three weeks with an oblique strain.
Tavares is expected to miss at least the first four games of the regular season with an oblique strain he suffered in training camp. With Tavares sidelined, Alex Kerfoot will likely centre the Maple Leafs' second line, and Pontus Holmberg could open the season with the team.
McCabe underwent successful cervical spine surgery and is expected to be out for 10-12 weeks.
McCabe underwent surgery on September 13th, so he's expected to be out until late-November/early-December. With McCabe sidelined, look for Riley Stillman and Alex Vlasic to get more work early in the season.
The Canadiens have signed Cayden Primeau to a three-year contract worth $2.67 million ($890K AAV).
The Lightning have signed Philippe Myers to a one-year contract worth $1.4 million.
The Golden Knights signed Nicolas Roy to a five-year deal worth $15.0 million ($3.0M AAV).
The Ducks have re-signed Simon Benoit to a one-year, two-way contract.
The Sharks have signed Steven Lorentz to a two-year, $2.1 million contract.
The Maple Leafs have signed Calle Jarnkrok to a four-year, $8.4 million contract.
Jarnkrok is a responsible two-way forward that can chip in a little bit of offence. In the last three seasons, he's averaged 18 goals and 24 assists (42 points) per 82 games--however he's missed 13.5 percent of the games during that stretch. He'll likely replace Ondrej Kase in Toronto and skate on the third line with David Kampf and Pierre Engvall.
The Sharks have signed Matthew Benning to a four-year, $5 million contract.
The Bruins have signed Vinni Lettieri to a one-year, two-way contract.
The Canucks have signed Dakota Joshua to a two-year contract.
The Sharks have acquired Steven Lorentz, Eetu Makiniemi and a conditional 2022 3rd round pick from the Hurricanes for Brent Burns and Lane Pederson.
The Blackhawks have signed Max Domi to a one-year deal worth $3.0 million.
