Maple Leafs provide massive injury update that could make fans happy

"Things haven't been looking good so far for the Toronto Maple Leafs this 2025-26 NHL season. Currently sitting dead last in the Eastern Conference with a 9-10-3 record, the Maple Leafs certainly didn't envision this happening after coming so close to advancing to the third round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs just last season. It also doesn't help that they have been smacked with injury woes to many of their regular players both on offense and defense to start the season."

"Matthew Knies Out with a lower-body injury since last week, Leafs head coach Craig Berube said that Matthew Knies is close to returning to game action, perhaps as early as this Wednesday. Currently second in assists and third in points in team scoring, Toronto can't wait to have one of their main offensive weapons back. Auston Matthews The Maple Leafs current downward spiral just so happens to coincide with when Auston Matthews went down with a lower-body injury five games ago."

"Nicolas Roy Nicolas Roy has been out of action due to an upper body injury suffered in the game against the Chicago Blackhawks four games ago. Roy was seen back in practice on Monday and could be returning to action soon in the coming week. He should help strengthen the Leafs bottom six upon his return. Anthony Stolarz The news on Leafs goaltender Anthony Stolarz isn't as optimistic as he has yet to return to the ice, as his lower-body injury now seems a lot worse than initial"

The Toronto Maple Leafs sit last in the Eastern Conference with a 9-10-3 record amid injury problems. Several regular players on offense and defense have suffered injuries that have contributed to the team's poor start. Matthew Knies is out with a lower-body injury but is reported close to returning, possibly as early as Wednesday. Auston Matthews suffered a lower-body injury five games ago; the team went 1-4 in his absence and he has not been ruled out for Wednesday's game. Nicolas Roy returned to practice and could rejoin the lineup soon, while Anthony Stolarz's lower-body injury appears worse and he has not returned to the ice.
