""He has to get something done. It didn't go the way we thought," Berube said via TSN's Mark Masters. When asked if Carlo requires surgery, Berube responded 'probably' with no timeline for his return. It was previously believed that Carlo could potentially return this week, but the 29-year-old is out definitely. Throughout the year, the Leafs have battled several injuries and received some more bad news Tuesday."
"Anthony Stolarz hasn't improved during his recovery from an upper-body injury sustained against the Boston Bruins on November 11. It was initially believed that Stolarz was day-to-day, but Berube revealed on November 20 that the goaltender suffered a setback in his recovery. Chris Tanev also remains on injured reserve, and the Maple Leafs are without two starting defencemen entering Tuesday's clash against the Florida Panthers."
"Simon Benoit will re-enter the lineup, replacing Dakota Mermis. Benoit will be paired with Philippe Myers for Tuesday's game. Troy Stecher has been elevated to a true No. 4 role, while there could be some opportunity for Toronto Marlies standout William Villeneuve down the line. Stecher has recorded two assists in six games with the Maple Leafs, where his mobility and zone exits are readily apparent."
Brandon Carlo likely requires surgery for a lower-body injury and will be out indefinitely. No timeline exists for his return after expectations of a possible comeback this week. Anthony Stolarz suffered a setback in recovery from an upper-body injury sustained Nov. 11 and has not improved. Chris Tanev remains on injured reserve, leaving the Maple Leafs without two starting defencemen. Simon Benoit returns to the lineup alongside Philippe Myers, while Troy Stecher has moved into a true No. 4 role. William Villeneuve may receive future opportunity. Carlo recorded two assists in 18 games after being acquired from the Boston Bruins.
