Sheldon Keefe Shares Unfortunate Update Regarding Multiple Key Players
Toronto Maple Leafs head coach Sheldon Keefe provided updates on Mitch Marner, Tyler Bertuzzi, and Ilya Lyubushkin's injuries this morning, shaping the team's lineup for upcoming games.
Marner has been sidelined since March 7th due to a mild high-ankle sprain, while Jarnkrok is out week-to-week with a hand injury. Keefe confirmed Marner won't be available for the next two games, but his recovery is progressing.
Meanwhile, a locker room illness has affected Bertuzzi and Lyubushkin, with Lyubushkin ruled out for the next game. Bertuzzi's status remains uncertain, with Keefe indicating he's still sick but may have a chance to play.
Despite Marner's absence, the team remains competitive, going 3-1-1. However, his return is eagerly anticipated given his crucial role in the lineup, highlighted by his record-setting performance earlier this season.
Marner's impact, with 25 goals and 76 points this season, underscores his importance to the Leafs, but the team has shown resilience in his absence.
