After losing Jake McCabe to injury recently, the Maple Leafs were hoping for good luck on the blue line, but unfortunately that hasn't happened.
Another injured blue liner
In their latest matchup against the Nashville Predators, Tomthy Lilegren was taken to the locker room after a seemingly innocuous hit, appearing to have pain in his shoulder.
Liljegren went to the dressing room in some shoulder pain after a hard hit into the end boards.
This came after a hit along the end boards, and given his injury history, this is the last thing the Leafs want to see.
We will provide an update on his condition as the game rolls along, but hoping for the best for the 24-year old who has seemingly become a key part of this lineup over the past 18 months.
