Ryan O'Reilly

The Toronto Maple Leafs will be without Ryan O'Reilly for four weeks with a broken index finger. Luckily it won't impact his availability for the playoffs.

He has five points in eight games with the Maple Leafs and a 67.5% faceoff winning percentage. The main focus must be on the Maple Leafs, but Dubas will not deplete the Marlies if he doesn’t have to. Doing so will give Toronto $2.8 million in cap space to call up a few players from the Toronto Marlies. Toronto can exceed 23 players as long as they have the cap space to do so. O’Reilly sustained the finger injury during the final minute of the second period in Saturday night’s loss to the Vancouver Canucks. The NHL playoffs are just a month away, and Toronto currently holds a five-point lead over the Tampa Bay Lightning for second place in the Atlantic Division.

Veteran centre was hit in the hand with a shot by Auston Matthews in Toronto's 4-1 loss in Vancouver over the weekend.

Foligno got hurt in his third game as a Leaf and though he played in the playoffs, he never quite fully recovered. That would give him nine games to get ready for the playoffs.

Cela entre dans la catégorie des mauvaises nouvelles. Du moins, c'est ce que les partisans des Maple Leafs doivent se dire à l'heure d'écrire ces lignes.

C’est le cas de le dire. Et il n’y a pas grand-chose à faire pour que tout ça s’arrête. Évidemment, il fallait que tout ça arrive aux Leafs.
