From David Alter:
"Sheldon Keefe says Mitch Marner is progressing well and is day-to-day. His status for practice tomorrow is undetermined right now. He won't play tonight. "
Without Marner, the Leafs won four of their last seven games. They could definitely use his help in the last stretch of the season, but what's important is that he comes back healthy in time for the playoffs.
More to come.
