Morgan Rielly has only been missing for four games, but the defenseman is slated to return against another division rival on Wednesday after the team had to recall Marshall Rifai on Monday to fill in the hole in the lineup.
As for Marner, the team are clearly being cautious with his recovery, as he's not set to return until the weekend against the rival Montreal Canadiens, but that will give him multiple games to get back up to speed ahead of the playoffs, so ultimately great news for the Maple Leafs.
