Maple Leafs' Ilya Lyubushkin: Misses practice Friday
Per Terry Koshan of The Toronto Sun, Lyubushkin (personal) missed practice Friday, but is an option to play Saturday, according to coach Sheldon Keefe.
Lyubushkin left the team for the birth of his third child after Wednesday's loss to Boston. The 30-year-old rearguard is expected to return ahead of Game 4 versus Boston on Saturday. Lyubushkin had four assists, 64 hits and 30 blocked shots in 19 games with the Maple Leafs after he was dealt from Anaheim on Feb. 29. Look for Timothy Liljegren to remain in the lineup, should Lyubushkin be unavailable Saturday.

Maple Leafs' Ilya Lyubushkin: Records apple
Lyubushkin recorded an assist in Monday's 3-2 win over Boston.
Lyubushkin's secondary assist came late in the third period when Auston Matthews scored on a breakaway to put the Leafs up 3-2. The 30-year-old Lyubushkin was on the ice for two of the Maple Leafs' three goals and logged 13:40 of ice time. He will likely skate on the first defensive pairing with Morgan Rielly during Game 3 on Wednesday.

Maple Leafs' Ilya Lyubushkin: Unavailable for Saturday
Lyubushkin (illness) will not be in the lineup against Edmonton on Saturday, David Alter of The Hockey News reports.
Lyubushkin will be out of action for his third consecutive game due to his lingering illness. In seven games since joining the Leafs, the 29-year-old defenseman has managed just two assists, four shots and 28 hits. Given his limited offensive upside, most fantasy players won't be impacted by his continued absence.

Maple Leafs' Ilya Lyubushkin: Under the weather
Lyubushkin is dealing with an illness and is not expected to play against the Flyers on Tuesday, David Alter of The Hockey News reports.
Lyubushkin still hasn't scored a goal this season, adding just six assists in 62 games for the Ducks and Maple Leafs. As such, few fantasy managers will likely be impacted by his potential absence, though he has racked up plenty of hits (140) and blocked shots (148) and could have value in formats that value defensive stats.

Lyubushkin (undisclosed) was not at practice Friday after getting banged up Thursday in Philadelphia, Mark Masters of TSN reports.

Lyubushkin assisted on the Maple Leafs' lone goal during Monday's 4-1 loss to the Bruins.
It's Lyubushkin's first point since being traded back to Toronto from Anaheim. The assist gives him no goals and five assists through 57 games. Clearly, the Maple Leafs believe he can help them push for a deep playoff run. However, fantasy managers should proceed with caution.

Maple Leafs' Ilya Lyubushkin: Good to go
Lyubushkin (head) is expected to play Monday against Boston, Mark Masters of TSN reports.
The 29-year-old Russian exited Saturday's win over the Rangers in the second period after absorbing a heavy hit from New York's Matt Rempe, but it appears Lyubushkin has already shaken off his issue. Lyubushkin, who's picked up four helpers and 116 blocks through 56 games between the Ducks and the Maple Leafs this season, is expected to skate alongside Morgan Rielly in the top four versus the Bruins.

Lyubushkin took a heavy hit from Matt Rempe in the second period. This was his return to the Maple Leafs after being traded from the Ducks on Thursday. The Leafs are short on defensemen, so it's unclear what they'll do if Lyubushkin misses additional time.

Maple Leafs' Ilya Lyubushkin: Heading back to Toronto
Lyubushkin was traded from the Ducks to the Maple Leafs via the Hurricanes on Thursday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
The Hurricanes will retain salary in the deal and receive Toronto's 2024 sixth-round pick, while the Ducks will get Toronto's 2025 third-round pick in the three-team swap, per Pierre LeBrun of The Athletic. Unsigned winger Kirill Slepets' signing rights were also traded from the Hurricanes to the Maple Leafs, LeBrun reports. Lyubushkin had six points in 31 contests with the Maple Leafs in 2021-22 following a trade from the Coyotes, and he added 14 points over 68 outings with the Sabres last season. He's been less effective on offense in 2023-24, with four assists and 38 shots on net over 55 contests with Anaheim, though he's added a physical element in a bottom-four role with 112 hits, 138 blocked shots and 51 PIM.

Ducks' Ilya Lyubushkin: Returns to lineup Wednesday
Lyubushkin (upper body) will return to action Wednesday against San Jose, per Alyson Lozoff of Bally Sports West.
Lyubushkin hasn't produced much for Anaheim this year, recording only four assists in 46 games. The 29-year-old will look to help the struggling Ducks with his defensive play where he's logged 72 hits and 119 blocked shots on the season. He will line up on the third defensive pairing with Urho Vaakanainen against the Sharks.

Ducks' Ilya Lyubushkin: Remains out Thursday
Lyubushkin (upper body) is not in the lineup for Saturday's game versus the Wild.
Lyubushkin will be out for the third time in the last four games. The 29-year-old defenseman has gone 12 contests without a point, so his absence won't be noticed much in fantasy. He has one chance to return before the Ducks' bye week -- Wednesday at home versus the Sharks.

Ducks' Ilya Lyubushkin: Out Thursday
Lyubushkin (upper body) is day-to-day and won't play Thursday against Dallas.
Lyubushkin missed Sunday's 5-2 loss to the Rangers but was able to return for Tuesday's 4-2 victory over Buffalo. It's not clear if he's dealing with the same upper-body injury that cost him Saturday's game or if this is a new issue. Lyubushkin has four assists, 51 PIM, 72 hits and 119 blocks in 46 outings this season. Robert Hagg will draw back into the lineup due to Lyubushkin's absence.

Ducks' Ilya Lyubushkin: Back in action
Lyubushkin (upper body) will play in Tuesday's game versus the Sabres.
Lyubushkin's status amounted to a game-time decision, but he'll suit up on the third pairing after a one-game absence. He'll be paired with Olen Zellweger, who is making his NHL debut Tuesday. Lyubushkin hasn't recorded a point in his last 11 contests.

Ducks' Ilya Lyubushkin: Garners assist Wednesday
Lyubushkin notched an assist, two blocked shots and a plus-3 rating in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Golden Knights.
Lyubushkin helped out on Frank Vatrano's first-period marker, which stood as the game-winner. The 29-year-old Lyubushkin has earned two of his four assists this season over the last six games. The blueliner plays mostly a defensive role in the Ducks' bottom four. He's added 24 shots on net, 24 PIM, 58 hits, 84 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating through 34 appearances, but his offense is too limited to help most fantasy managers.

Ducks' Ilya Lyubushkin: Registers helper in loss
Lyubushkin posted an assist, two hits, two blocked shots and two PIM in Friday's 5-1 loss to the Rangers.
Lyubushkin's point drought lasted more than a month -- he went 14 games off the scoresheet, adding a minus-12 rating, 30 hits and 36 blocked shots in that span. The 29-year-old's presence in the lineup is purely a defensive one, so it's not unusual that he's struggled to score much in his first year with the Ducks. He's at three assists, 73 blocks, 54 hits, 24 PIM, 22 shots on net and a minus-10 rating over 29 appearances.
