Coach Ryan Worsoski confirmed Toffoli is still under evaluation, with an update expected tomorrow. He noted the team will feel his absence, but has players ready to step up. Filip Kurechev, who sat out the last two games as a healthy scratch, looks set to fill in first. He practiced alongside Macklin Celebrini and Will Smith, bringing seven goals and 20 points in 41 games this season. Toffoli, meanwhile, had 18 goals and 44 points in 67 outings. Defenseman Vincent Descharnes remains a game-time decision for tomorrow with an upper body issue.
