Fantasy Impact: Matthews is back after missing Tuesday night’s contest against the New Jersey Devils due to an injury suffered from a blocked shot in Sunday’s loss to the Red Wings. Veteran center John Tavares returns to the No. 2 center spot with Matthews reclaiming the No. 1 role for head coach Craig Berube against the Jets Thursday night.

Fantasy Impact: Nylander will miss a second consecutive contest, with head coach Craig Berube stating the talented winger will be evaluated as day-to-day by the club. Easton Cowan will remain slotted into a Toronto lineup that will look to put Sunday night’s loss in the rearview mirror Tuesday night.
