Two offseason trades. Two bets that haven’t paid off yet. Is there any hope for Dakota Joshua and Matias Maccelli with the Leafs? www.nytimes.com/athletic/683...

The Maple Leafs opted to have skill development sessions today in lieu of a full practice. Craig Berube said he wanted some players to get “mental and physical rest” and others to “reset”.

Craig Berube offered the following updates on the Maple Leafs injuries: Jake McCabe: Fine to play against Columbus Auston Matthews, Matthew Knies, and Nic Roy: “Close” to returning Anthony Stolarz: “A ways away” and still not skating Brandon Carlo: Still not skating

Injuries to Auston Matthews and Anthony Stolarz on top of a three-game losing streak. Things have gone from bad to worse for the Maple Leafs: www.nytimes.com/athletic/680...

Craig Berube on Anthony Stolarz’ injury: “I don’t believe that’s serious. I think he’ll be fine.” Berube says he’s hopeful Stolarz will be available on Thursday when the Leafs host the Kings.

Craig Berube on the severity of Auston Matthews’ injury: “I don’t know exactly. I can’t give you a timeline or (tell you) how serious it is right now. I’m not sure when he hurt it to be honest with you.”

Craig Berube says Joseph Woll will start — and play the full game — for the Marlies on Wednesday night and likely rejoin the Leafs after that.

The Leafs appear set to stick with the same defence against the Bruins: Rielly — Carlo Benoit — McCabe Ekman-Larsson — Myers

One notable change for the Leafs in Boston: Nick Robertson will join Auston Matthews and Matthew Knies on the top line — in place of William Nylander. Nylander will play alongside Bobby McMann and John Tavares.

“We don’t value the defensive side of the puck enough.” Craig Berube might be ready to explode: Monday Morning Leafs Report: www.nytimes.com/athletic/679...

Joseph Woll is expected to make his first start for the Marlies tomorrow night in Allentown, Pennsylvania. It will be his first game action since May 18 — Game 7 of the second round against Florida.

Joseph Woll addressed his leave of absence from the Leafs for the first time today: “All I’m gonna say about my time away is that I’m disappointed to have missed time and I’m very happy to be back. So I’d really like all the focus to be on my job to do here.”

Oliver Ekman-Larsson is replacing Morgan Rielly on the point of PP1 for the Leafs. Matthew Knies also rejoins the top unit.

It looks like Matias Maccelli may take Easton Cowan’s place in the lineup when the Leafs play Utah on Wednesday night. Scott Laughton in line to make his season debut in place of Sammy Blais.

“I just thought the compete level was not there.” "It showed on the scoreboard. It showed it in the shots. It showed in the chances. It showed in everything.” The Maple Leafs still need to prove they’re a serious team: www.nytimes.com/athletic/677...

Unclear as of yet if William Nylander will rejoin the Leafs lineup on Tuesday night. Nylander wasn’t a full participant at today’s practice. He sat out chunks of drills, rotating sporadically onto the top line. He did rejoin PP1 during the special teams portion of practice.

Joseph Woll is sharing a net with Anthony Stolarz during his first practice with the Leafs since training camp.

Craig Berube has changed all 4 lines and all 3 D pairs (in the wake of Chris Tanev’s injury): McMann — Matthews — Nylander Knies — Tavares — Maccelli Joshua — Roy — Cowan Lorentz — Domi — Järnkrok McCabe — Carlo (Rielly)* — Ekman-Larsson Benoit — Myers *Not practising

Auston Matthews’ linemates today: William Nylander and Bobby McMann.

“I know that the level I was at last year wasn’t up to my standard.” Inside the motivation fuelling Auston Matthews this season: www.nytimes.com/athletic/674...

Craig Berube on giving William Nylander a full-time look on the Leafs top line: “It’s definitely something that I’m thinking about.”

William Nylander has assisted on 11 of the Leafs’ 24 goals this season (and scored two more himself).

Easton Cowan may be on the outside and Steven Lorentz is moving to centre amid a Leafs lineup shuffle: Knies — Matthews — Domi Maccelli — Tavares — Nylander Joshua — Roy — McMann Robertson — Lorentz — Järnkrok Extras: Cowan, Blais

Craig Berube is moving Max Domi onto the Leafs top line with Auston Matthews and Matthew Knies.
