Leafs’ Rielly to sit out third straight game with injury Monday vs. Flames
TORONTO — The Toronto Maple Leafs won’t have their No. 1 defenceman Monday night against the visiting Calgary Flames.
Morgan Rielly will sit out a third straight game with a lower-body injury against the Flames. Head coach Mike Babcock was unsure if the 22-year-old would be held out through the all-star break.
The Leafs have three more games before this weekend’s event in Los Angeles, including a back-to-back set on the road in Detroit and Philadelphia.
“If he’s ready to play we’ll play him,” Babcock said after Monday’s morning skate.
