Maple Leafs D Muzzin week-to-week with broken foot
Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Jake Muzzin is considered week-to-week with a broken foot, the team announced Saturday. Muzzin sustained the injury while blocking a shot in the first period of Toronto's 5-4 overtime win against the New Jersey Devils on Friday in Newark, N.J. Despite being injured, Muzzin played the remainder of the game.
The Maple Leafs recalled fellow defenseman Timothy Liljegren from the Toronto Marlies of the American Hockey League on Saturday to replace Muzzin, who collected three goals and 10 assists in 38 games this season. Muzzin, who won the Stanley Cup with Los Angeles in 2014, has recorded 59 goals and 183 assists in 564 career games with the Kings and Maple Leafs.
Liljegren, 20, has scored three goals and set up 14 others in 27 games with the Marlies this season. --Field Level Media
