John Tavares, Matthew Knies Could Return On Saturday
9 seconds agoAccording to Mark Masters of TSN, Toronto Maple Leafs forwards John Tavares (lower body) and Matthew Knies (upper body) could return to the starting lineup on Saturday evening to face the Edmonton Oilers. Tavares has been sidelined over the past six games but has resumed skating this week, which is a positive sign. Knies has missed the last two contests and is trending towards a quick return. Before the injury, Tavares tallied four points over his previous six games. Across 44 total games, the 34-year-old has tallied 42 points. Knies was enjoying a nice offensive surge as he tallied 12 points, including seven goals in 10 games before his injury. Both forwards would be expected to return to the top six on Saturday night and would be viable options in DFS.
