Former Blackhawks Forward and Star Player Not With Team on Ice Due to Personal Reasons
The Chicago Blackhawks traded Sam Lafferty to the Toronto Maple Leafs over a month ago, but Lafferty may be missing the Leafs' last game of the season for personal reasons. It's unclear what the reasons are, but the team is hoping that everything is okay with Lafferty.
Tonight's game is ultimately meaningless for the Leafs, as they've already secured their playoff spot. As a result, the team is focusing on personal matters and supporting Lafferty during this time. It's also worth noting that John Tavares will not be playing in the game due to personal reasons as well.
While missing players is never ideal, the Leafs have a strong roster and are still in good shape heading into the playoffs. The team will be looking to finish the regular season on a positive note and carry that momentum into the postseason.
