The Maple Leafs just got some bad news in the last few minutes, they thought they might get Jake Muzzin by the end of the season or at least for the playoffs.
"The Leafs officially announce that Jake Muzzin will miss the remainder of the regular season and the playoffs due to his cervical spine injury."
Muzzin recorded one assist in four games this season. He has one season remaining on his four-year, $22.5 million contract.
The Toronto Maple Leafs announced today that after follow-up consultation this month with various specialists, our medical staff have determined that defenceman Jake Muzzin has been ruled out for the rest of the 2022-23 regular season and playoffs as he recovers from a cervical spine injury.
The club will provide a further update as to his status at training camp in September 2023. Muzzin skated in four games with the Maple Leafs this season and recorded one assist.
