BREAKING: Maple Leafs Defenseman Close to Returning to the Line-Up
Sheldon Keefe provided an important update concerning the return of Timothy Liljegren.
Keefe Shares Update on Liljegren's Health
In a press conference, the head coach mentionned that Timothy Liljegren is close to making a comeback.
"Sheldon Keefe says Timothy Liljegren is close to returning and it's just about getting his conditioning up at this point."
Liljegren hasn't took part in a game since he was injured by Brad Marchand on November 2nd and his return will surely remove some pressure off the defensive core.
The Maple Leafs need Liljegren to comeback to solidify their defense and maybe become a trade chip to acquire a bigger name.
Details and updates will follow.
