Fresh off the NHL’s three-day holiday break, the Toronto Maple Leafs took to the ice for a morning skate ahead of their Friday matchup with the Detroit Red Wings. One notable participant was defenseman Chris Tanev, who missed Monday’s game against the Winnipeg Jets with a lower-body injury despite taking warmups with the club.

The holiday break came at the perfect time for Toronto Maple Leafs defenceman Chris Tanev. Tanev was a late scratch for the Maple Leafs’ final game before the break with what the team said was a lower-body injury.

The Toronto Maple Leafs have ruled out defenseman Chris Tanev with a lower-body injury ahead of the club’s 5-2 loss to the Winnipeg Jets on Monday. Philippe Myers skated with the Maple Leafs. Tanev was one of six members of the Leafs to have played in all 34 games leading into Monday’s contest.
