This just in, Toronto Maple Leafs general manager Kyle Dubas announced today that recently acquired forward Ryan O'Reilly is expected back in the lineup before the start of the Stanley Cup Playoffs in mid-April.
Check it out courtesy of TSN insider Chris Johnston:
Ultimately, I think the team is hoping that O'Reilly would be eligible to return for the Leafs' last week of the regular season and would get him approximately three or four games of action before the playoffs start. The 32 year old center has three goals and five points in eight games since joining the Leafs, bringing his season total to 15 goals and 24 points in 48 games split between the Leafs and the St. Louis Blues.
