The upcoming return of the Toronto Maple Leafs star forward can be considered an early holiday gift, one the team was aching for.
Marner, who’s been out after sustaining an ankle injury against Philadelphia on November the 9th, participated in his first full practice after being injured. He skated without the red non-contact jersey, meaning his return is soon upon us.
Aside from the news being great for the team, it’s also great news for Toronto Maple Leafs captain, John Tavares, who will get back his 94 point sidekick.
Regardless, the news is also complicating for Sheldon Keefe, who now has to scratch someone from the line-up.
