Brad Treliving on Connor Dewar nearing a return to the Leafs’ lineup: “Plays all three forward positions, kills penalties, adds speed, and plays with a little sand in his game”

Do you have a sense of the significance of the issue that Auston Matthews is dealing with?

Treliving: No change. Day-to-day. We just want to make sure we get ahead of it and hopefully get it behind us once and for all. He will remain day-to-day. I would say he is doubtful for tomorrow, but he skated Saturday and Sunday. We will keep going down that path.

A couple of other roster updates: Max Pacioretty suffered an injury, and we are going to list him as week-to-week. It is a lower-body injury. He’ll be on IR.
