Toronto Maple Leafs Catch A Break With Injury News

Toronto Maple Leafs Head Coach Sheldon Keefe announced Monday night that forward Zach Hyman will miss two weeks with an MCL strain he suffered during Sundays game against the Vancouver Canucks.

Two weeks is a lot of time to be missing a player of Hyman’s caliber but the two weeks is a much better outcome than some were speculating it could have been. It seems the Leafs caught a bit of a break here.

TOR head coach Sheldon Keefe says Zach Hyman has a sprained MCL. Out at least two weeks. Probably as good news as they could get.
