Calle Jarnkrok back on the ice days ahead of the Stanley Cup playoffs
The Toronto Maple Leafs are gearing up for the Stanley Cup Playoffs, and now they have another player set to make his return shortly as Calle Jarnkrok returns to the ice ahead of Leafs practice today.
Calle Jarnkrok is an important piece of the Leafs lineup that has been fluctuating over the past few months as they deal with injury. While they have found some chemistry in certain lines, they are poised to have an even better roster come game 1 of the Stanley Cup playoffs, as Calle Jarnkrok gets closer to return.
Today, it was revealed that Jarnkrok was on the ice ahead of Leafs practice, indicating that his return for the playoffs is likely.
Jarnkrok is an interesting potential addition to the Leafs playoff lineup, as he can play up and down the Leafs lines. It is likely he will find a spot on the Leafs' third line, however, with Sheldon Keefe mixing up the lines, who knows what he will come up with.
Notes Calle Jarnkrok's health remains a wildcard
Calls the Bertuzzi-Matthews-Domi chemistry "a real thing that gives our team a completely different look"
Keefe has two games left to play with his lines ahead of the playoffs, however, it is likely that his stars will get some rest in the final game, giving some of the depth players an opportunity to show that they can be trusted during the playoffs.
