BREAKING: Sheldon Keefe Confirms Two Maple Leafs Defenseman Out
The Toronto Maple Leafs have had an up and down season to this point. However, they are entering a stretch of the schedule that is relatively easy considering the opponents they will be facing so hopefully this will be time for the team to make up some ground in the standings. However, they will not be fully healthy tonight as they take on the Senators.
Multiple Leafs Defensemen To Miss Game Against Ottawa Senators
The Toronto Maple Leafs are set to host the Ottawa Senators tonight. While it should be a relatively easy win for the Leafs, the Sens have proved to be a difficult opponent for the team this year as they won two of the three previous contests. Tonight, the Leafs will be missing a couple of defensemen, making the game a little more difficult.
Sheldon Keefe says Mark Giordano is day-to-day with a lower body injury. Also adds it might be a bit longer than just day-to-day and that the injury occurred in the last game.
Conor Timmins is ill. Timmins has not been a regular part of the Leafs roster this season. He has played in just 16 games for the team this year, recording a goal and 5 assists in the process.
Giordano meanwhile, has been a regular presence on the blueline for the team this year. Despite dealing with some serious injuries, he has played in 34 games, putting up the exact same production in those games as Timmins. Stay tuned to see of the Leafs are able to even the season series against Ottawa tonight, despite missing these defensemen.
