Fox shared on X that Timothy Liljegren won't take part in tonight's game.

Check out his post:

After yesterday's practice, head coach Sheldon Keefe confirmed that if Liljegren isn't able to play on Tuesday night against Vegas, veteran Mark Giordano will take his spot on the lineup.

The Leafs demolished the Golden Knights last Thursday, winning 7-3. They'll try to repeat that feat as Vegas will look to bounce back from three straight losses.

Who do you think will win tonight?
