Jake Muzzin is likely to come off LTIR today and play against the Florida Panthers today. He’s playing the best team in the east in his first game back because the Maple Leafs really don’t have time to ease him into the lineup. He’s been practicing for a while, but until there was room to activate him, he wasn’t going to be given the green light to play. Petr Mrázek’s misfortune is Muzzin’s cue to re-join the team. If he plays every game remaining he’ll have 54 games played this season.
In the year Muzzin split between LA and Toronto, 2018-2019, he played 80 games.
