Maple Leafs' Nylander Skates, Targets Saturday Return from Groin Injury

AutoDraft Pro AI

William Nylander (groin) skated on the second line during Friday's practice session and also participated on the first power-play unit. This suggests he could return to the lineup for Saturday's game against Vancouver. Nylander had hoped to return during the Maple Leafs' four-game road trip, and despite missing Thursday's game against Seattle, his encouraging participation in Friday's practice session indicates a potential return two days later.
