"Carlo was held out of Saturday's game against the Chicago Blackhawks with a lower-body injury, after not participating in Friday's practice due to maintenance. It's unclear at the time of this filing when Carlo suffered the injury. Toronto is already without Chris Tanev, who remains on injured reserve indefinitely. Auston Matthews and Scott Laughton are also on injured reserve and the Maple Leafs' depth is being tested, amid a five-game losing streak in November."
"Carlo recorded two assists in 18 games for the Maple Leafs this season. The 28-year-old has been off to a slow start relative to his own standards, struggling to build off continuity developed with Morgan Rielly over the past year. Toronto will be forced to adapt without Tanev and Carlo, allowing the second-most goals in the NHL prior to Monday's games."
Brandon Carlo was placed on injured reserve retroactive to November 13 with a lower-body injury after missing practice and being held out of a recent game; the exact timing of the injury is unclear. Jacob Quillan was called up from the AHL's Toronto Marlies after scoring two goals and 14 points in 14 games. The Maple Leafs are also without Chris Tanev, Auston Matthews and Scott Laughton, straining depth amid a five-game losing streak and a high goals-against total. Troy Stecher was claimed off waivers as a possible defensive option. Carlo has two assists in 18 games and was acquired from Boston for Fraser Minten and a 2026 first-round pick.
