Marshall Rifai Placed on IR with Week-to-Week Lower-Body Injury

Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Marshall Rifai has been placed on injured reserve and is considered week-to-week due to a lower-body injury. Head coach Jim Hiller revealed that Rifai sustained the injury during Tuesday's 6-2 win over Columbus, a game in which he scored his first career NHL goal. Rifai attempted to participate in Thursday's morning skate before leaving the ice twice, leading to his placement on injured reserve.
