Toronto Maple Leafs - Frederik Andersen (Photo by Claus Andersen/Getty Images)
On Thursday, May 6th, Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Frederik Andersen began his three-game conditioning stint with the Toronto Marlies.
This conditioning stint will determine if Andersen is fit to play. If he is deemed fit to play, he will then be taken off of Long Term Injury Reserve (LTIR) and, one assumes, inserted back into the Toronto Maple Leafs lineup.
Andersen has been out since March 19th with a lower-body injury. In the six games Andersen played before his injury, it was clear that he was not playing at 100%.
