Matt Hunwick

Matt Hunwick will rejoin the lineup for Saturday's game against the Blackhawks.

Fantasy Impact

Hunwick is a stay-at-home defenseman who missed 15 straight games due to a concussion. Hunwick probably isn't going to entice fantasy owners, but is valuable as a smooth skater who rarely commits turnovers.

Matt Hunwick according to coach Mike Sullivan will be kept out a few more days due to his lingering concussion symptoms.

Fantasy Impact

Hunwick has been sidelined for 13 straight outings with his concussion and seems like he'll be out awhile longer. If Hunwick isn't at practice making contact, its a safe bet he's not cleared to play. Hunwick will remain on IR and will have to be activated once given the all-clear. Chad Ruhwedel will continue to fill in during Hunwicks absence.

Matt Hunwick will undergo season-ending surgery, Toronto has announced. The operation is to repair a sports hernia.

Fantasy Impact

Hunwick saw a lot of time on the ice for Toronto, and the defenseman will be missed. He registered 10 points and 74 shots on goal in 60 games this season.
