Chips in with helper Liljegren registered an assist and three hits in Thursday's 2-1 win over the Bruins in Game 6.

Impact Liljegren snapped a nine-game point drought with the helper. During that time, he missed eight games with an upper-body injury and was a healthy scratch once (in Game 4 of the first round). The defenseman's place in the lineup is mostly secure, but it's not a guaranteed spot. He matched his career high with 23 points while adding 62 shots on net, 92 hits and 116 blocked shots in 55 regular-season appearances in 2023-24.

Impact Liljegren is poised to return from an eight-game absence due to his upper-body problem.

Not returning before final week Liljegren (upper body) is not expected to return before the last two games of the regular season, Mark Masters of TSN reports.

Will miss time Liljegren is expected to miss some time with the upper-body injury that kept him out of Thursday's game versus the Capitals, David Alter of The Hockey News reports.

Impact A specific timeline for Liljegren's return was not given by head coach Sheldon Keefe. The 24-year-old Liljegren was replaced by Mark Giordano in the lineup Thursday, though Morgan Rielly (upper body) is considered day-to-day and could be back before Liljegren is cleared to play.

Out with upper-body injury Liljegren (upper body) won't play Thursday versus the Capitals.

Impact Liljegren saw 22:28 of ice time Tuesday versus the Devils, so it's unclear when he was injured. Mark Giordano (concussion) was activated from long-term injured reserve and will enter the lineup in place of Liljegren, while Conor Timmins is likely to see increased power-play duties.

Big two-point effort Liljegren had a goal and an assist in a 6-2 win over the Flyers on Thursday.

Impact Liljegren pushed the score to 3-0 with a shot from just inside the blue line at 15:30 of the first period. It stood as the winner. Liljegren hadn't picked up a goal in 22 games, and his overall play had of late has been mid (at best). The points don't erase his on-ice scuffles by any means, but it was a great night to boost his confidence.

Unlikely to play Thursday Liljegren (undisclosed) will likely miss Thursday's tilt versus Arizona, per David Alter of The Hockey News.

Impact Liljegren skated an hour before the Maple Leafs' practice Thursday, but he was not on the ice with the regulars once the morning skate began. He missed Tuesday's game versus Vegas. Liljegren has two goals and 16 points in 40 games this season. Look for Mark Giordano to remain in the lineup and take Liljegren's spot on the third unit.

Unavailable versus Vegas Liljegren (undisclosed) won't play Tuesday against the Golden Knights, David Alter of The Hockey News reports.

Provides pair of helpers Liljegren notched two assists, two shots on goal, three hits and four blocked shots in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Coyotes.

Impact Liljegren helped get the Maple Leafs on the right path early, providing both assists in the first period. He has seven helpers over his last four games -- he's stepped up in a big way while the team's defense corps was missing multiple regulars. Liljegren is likely to see a reduced role starting Thursday, as Morgan Rielly is poised to return from a five-game suspension. Liljegren has 16 points, 41 shots on net, 53 hits, 83 blocked shots and a plus-7 rating over 38 appearances, and he should still remain in a top-four role.

FEBRUARY 22, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Three assists in win Liljegren recorded three assists in Saturday's 9-2 victory over Anaheim.

Impact Two of Liljegren's three helpers came on the power play as the Leafs cruised to a lopsided win. The 24-year-old blueliner now has five assists in his last two contests after going 11 games without a point. Overall, Liljegren's up to 14 points (two goals, 12 assists) through 36 games this season. He should continue to work on Toronto's top pairing and power-play unit while Mark Giordano (personal) and Morgan Rielly (suspension) are unavailable.
