Rielly will be out for a minimum of 10 games or 24 days. The early reports on the nature of the injury and timeline for recovery are that it is an MCL sprain requiring four-to-six weeks to rehabilitate, so it’s not season-ending-level disastrous, but it will likely keep Rielly out until the new year.
The @MapleLeafs have recalled D Mac Hollowell and D Victor Mete from the @TorontoMarlies.
D Morgan Rielly has been placed on long-term injured reserve (knee injury).
Rumblings of a grade 1 or 2 MCL injury for Rielly which would align with LTIR and a 4-6 week recovery.
