Maple Leafs winger William Nylander appears on course to suit up for the first time in this spring's Stanley Cup playoffs.

Nylander wouldn't say what's kept him out of the Original Six matchup, but added he's been “feeling great” heading into tomorrow's Game 4 with the Leafs trailing 2-1.
The Swede's arrival in the series would be a welcome boost for Toronto's attack, which has scored six goals in nine periods, and is just 1-for-11 on the power play.
Toronto centre Auston Matthews sat out today's on-ice session for what the team called a maintenance day.
Leafs defenceman Ilya Lyubushkin was also absent following the birth of his daughter in California. Head coach Sheldon Keefe said he expects the Russian to be available for Game 4.
This report by The Canadian Press was first published April 26, 2024.
