As the playoffs draw near, the Toronto Maple Leafs faced a setback today as they practiced without two key players, sparking concern among fans about their health at this crucial stage of the season.

This season, the Maple Leafs have adopted a grittier playstyle that has excited many fans, especially as they look ahead to the post-season.

However, with the end of the regular season approaching, there's growing apprehension that injuries may be taking a toll on the team. Notably absent from practice were Max Domi and Bobby McMann.





The absence of these players is worrying for Leaf fans, who hope the team will prioritize their rest ahead of the playoffs. With just two games left in the regular season, there seems to be little reason to rush Domi or McMann back into the lineup.

The absence of these key players also meant a shift in the lines during today's practice session, highlighting the impact of their injuries.
