The Worst Is Confirmed For Maple Leafs Prospect
Tverberg Injured After Dirty Hit
On Wednesday, we shared the news that Ryan Tverberg, the Maple Leafs' seventh-round pick in 2020, suffered a major injury.
For the full details, please read:
Major Update on Tverberg's Health
Joshua Kloke, a writer for The Athletic, disclosed new information about the player's recovery.
"Sounds like Ryan Tverberg might miss a month or so with an injury.
Brutal for a Leafs prospect who was enjoying such a strong start to this Marlies season."
In five games this season in the AHL, the 21-year-old center scored four points and has a +2 goal differential.
Missing a month can have a significant impact on a player's development, but we sincerely hope he can come back at 100% to help the Marlies qualify for the playoffs.
