    • Expected to play Saturday
      Nylander (undisclosed) is likely to play in Saturday's Game 4 against the Bruins, per Chris Johnston of The Athletic.

      Advice: Nylander's return should provide Toronto's lineup with a major boost as they try to even the series in Game 4. The 27-year-old winger missed the first three games of Toronto's first-round playoff matchup after posting a career-high 98 points (40 goals, 58 assists) in 82 regular-season contests.

    • Questionable for Saturday
      Nylander (undisclosed) said "I don't know" when asked Friday if he was playing in Game 4 versus Boston on Saturday, Jonas Siegel of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Nylander was a full participant at practice Friday, including on the first power play. The Maple Leafs are really missing Nylander, who has sat out the first three games of the series. Nylander ended the regular season with 40 goals and 98 points in 82 games. He should be considered a game-time decision ahead of Saturday's tilt in Toronto. Rotowire.com Friday, 10:00 am
       
    • Not playing Wednesday
      Nylander (undisclosed) is not on the ice for warmups, indicating he won't play in Game 3 versus the Bruins on Wednesday, David Alter of The Hockey News reports.

      Advice: Nylander has been a game-time call throughout the playoffs, but he'll miss his third straight contest to open the Maple Leafs' first-round series. The 27-year-old's next chance to play is Saturday's Game 4 -- he may benefit from having an extra day to try to shake off the injury. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 3:34 pm
       
    • Could still play Wednesday
      Nylander (undisclosed) hasn't officially been ruled out for Game 3 against Boston on Wednesday after coach Sheldon Keefe told reporters "there's a chance" Nylander plays, Chris Johnston of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Nylander stayed on the ice late at morning skate, which would normally signal he won't be ready to jump into the lineup Wednesday. When the 27-year-old forward does return, he will likely slot into a third-line role playing alongside Calle Jarnkrok and Pontus Holmberg. In addition, Nylander figures to be pressed into service on the No. 1 power-play unit upon his return. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 8:19 am
       
    • Unlikely to play Wednesday
      Nylander (undisclosed) isn't expected to play in Game 3 versus the Bruins on Wednesday, per Mark Masters of TSN.

      Advice: Nylander joined the Maple Leafs for the morning skate, but he remained on the ice with projected scratch Noah Gregor after the main group left. That suggests Nylander will miss his third straight contest due to the injury. When the 27-year-old is ready to return, he might play on the third line alongside Calle Jarnkrok and Pontus Holmberg as part of Toronto's effort to balance its offense.

    • Possible for Game 3
      Nylander (undisclosed) is a possibility for Game 3 against Boston on Wednesday, Mark Masters of TSN reports.

      Advice: Coach Sheldon Keefe was unable to provide a more substantial update Tuesday because it was a travel day for the Maple Leafs. Nylander missed both of Toronto's contests in Boston to begin the playoffs because of an undisclosed injury. Still, it wouldn't be surprising if the 27-year-old forward was a game-time decision for a third straight outing. Nylander produced 40 goals and a career-high 98 points in 82 outings during the 2023-24 regular season. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 10:38 am
       
    • Out Monday
      Nylander (undisclosed) will not suit up for Game 2 against the Bruins on Monday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

      Advice: Nylander was a game-time call, so he at least appears to be close to returning. He dressed in all 82 games during the regular season, racking up 40 goals and a career-high 98 points. Barring a setback, he should have a decent shot at getting back in the lineup for Game 3 on Wednesday. Rotowire.com Monday, 3:38 pm
       
    • Officially game-time call
      Nylander (undisclosed) will be a game-time decision against the Bruins for Game 2 on Monday. Head coach Sheldon Keefe told reporters, "We'll see how he feels here the rest of the day here and make a decision," Chris Johnston of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Nylander stayed out on the ice late with the other scratches and didn't take line rushes during the game-day skate, so it certainly doesn't seem like he will be returning to action. Whenever the winger dis ready to play again, he will be looking to end his current 11-game goal drought. Rotowire.com Monday, 9:04 am
       
    • Adds helper
      Boser recorded an assist in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Predators in Game 1.

      Advice: Boeser was reportedly dealing with an undisclosed injury late in the regular season, but it was minor enough to avoid costing him a playoff game. The winger had a career year with 40 goals, 73 points, 204 shots on net and a plus-23 rating over 81 appearances. Boeser will likely maintain a top-six role throughout the Canucks' postseason run.
