Why did Auston Matthews remain off the ice this morning?
Keefe: We just decided to keep him off. He took the option. He is good to go tonight.
What are the chances William Nylander will play tonight?
Keefe: There is a chance. He was still out there getting in work. It depends on how he responds. We’ll take it from there.
What have you liked about how the team has dealt with Nylander’s absence and the trickle-down effect on the lineup?
Keefe: We have been happy with it.
