Neither is Rasmus Sandin, but the condition of Mitch Marner is still a bit of a mystery. We’ll have a preview/gameday post for you later as the Leafs gear up to play the Blue Jackets. Ryan Tverberg’s team has Covid problems just as he’s about to go off to Team Canada camp in a week or so: > Due to covid related issues within the program, this weekend's series with AIC has been postponed. > > Information on potential make-up dates is not available at this time.

You never know, they need depth. In the meantime complain about how much that trade cost. Have a good Tuesday, everyone.
