Maple Leafs' David Kampf: Ready to return
Kampf (lower body) will return to the lineup for Wednesday's road matchup against the Stars, Dave McCarthy of NHL.com relays.
Kampf has missed 12 consecutive games due to the injury. The left-shot center should slot in on the fourth line in addition to filling a role on the penalty kill. Connor Dewar will likely be a healthy scratch Wednesday in Dallas.

Maple Leafs' Anthony Stolarz: Set to miss 4-6 weeks
Stolarz (knee) will be out for 4-6 weeks after undergoing a procedure to remove a loose body from his knee in New York on Wednesday, Dave McCarthy of NHL.com reports.
Stolarz suffered the injury in Thursday's 3-2 win over Anaheim. He didn't sustain any structural damage but will be out for a while. Stolarz has posted a 9-5-2 record with one shutout, a 2.15 GAA and a .927 save percentage through 17 appearances this season. He is already on injured reserve but could shift to LTIR if the Maple Leafs need the cap space. Joseph Woll should see most of the starts while Stolarz is unavailable.

Maple Leafs' Fraser Minten: Sent down to minors
Minten was reassigned to AHL Toronto on Tuesday.
Minten's demotion is a good indication that David Kampf (lower body) will be available against the Stars on Wednesday -- though he is officially still on long-term IR. For this part, the 20-year-old Minten has appeared in 11 NHL games this year in which he generated two goals, two assists and 31 hits while averaging 12:47 of ice time. Should the need arise, Minten figures to remain atop the list of potential call-ups for the rest of the year.

Maple Leafs' Chris Tanev: Contributes assist in win
Tanev logged an assist, four PIM and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 5-3 win over the Sabres.
Tanev has actually been steady on offense with three assists over his last six games. The 34-year-old defenseman is not typically a source of offense, but he is reliable for blocked shots, though he has failed to record a block in two of the last three contests. Overall, he has nine points, 15 shots on net, 16 PIM, a plus-10 rating and 90 blocks through 31 appearances.

Maple Leafs' Max Domi: Finds twine in two-point effort
Domi scored a goal on two shots, added an assist and went plus-2 in Sunday's 5-3 win over the Sabres.
The goal was Domi's first of the season, and he also snapped a 16-game point drought. The 29-year-old center had recently missed eight contests due to a lower-body injury, and Sunday was his fourth game back in action. He's been limited to eight points, 29 shots on net and 21 PIM over 23 appearances in a middle-six role.

Maple Leafs' Dennis Hildeby: Earns win Sunday
Hildeby stopped 24 of 27 shots in Sunday's 5-3 win over the Sabres.
Hildeby made his third start of the season Sunday and had a strong showing. He'll remain as a backup going forward, meaning his fantasy upside will be limited to being a streaming option. Hildeby has gone 2-1-0 with a 3.69 GAA and an .875 save percentage in his three appearances in 2024-25. Hildeby will remain as the Maple Leafs' backup as long as Anthony Stolarz (lower body) remains on injured reserve.

Maple Leafs' Nicholas Robertson: Scores, assists Sunday
Robertson notched a goal and an assist in Sunday's 5-3 win over the Sabres.
Robertson didn't play in four straight games before suiting up Sunday, and he made his presence felt by delivering his first multi-point performance of the campaign. That said, Robertson has tallied just four points across 24 games this season, so he shouldn't have a lot of upside in most fantasy formats.

Maple Leafs' John Tavares: Natural hat trick Sunday
Tavares scored a hat trick, including one goal on the power play and an empty-netter, in Sunday's 5-3 win over the Sabres.
Tavares accomplished a natural hat trick by scoring the last three goals of the game, and he came through when the Maple Leafs needed him the most, as his three goals switched things from a 3-2 deficit to a 5-3 win for Toronto. This was his second hat trick of the current campaign, and he's up to 28 points (15 goals, 13 assists) in 30 games this season.

Maple Leafs' Bobby McMann: Sets up two goals Sunday
McMann delivered two assists and took two shots on goal in Sunday's 5-3 win over the Sabres.
McMann participated in the build-up of the goals scored by Max Domi and Nicholas Robertson in the first and second periods, respectively. This was the first time the 28-year-old cracked the scoresheet since bagging two goals in a 4-3 win over the Oilers on Nov. 16, although it must be noted he missed seven games due to a lower-body injury between Nov. 30 and Dec. 12. McMann has six goals and three helpers over 23 appearances this season.

Maple Leafs' Dennis Hildeby: Guarding goal Sunday
Hildeby will defend the road net versus Buffalo on Sunday, per David Alter of The Hockey News.
Hildeby has surrendered eight goals on 61 shots en route to a 1-1-0 record in the NHL this season. With Anthony Stolarz (lower body) on IR, Hildeby will get the second half of Toronto's back-to-back after Joseph Woll played in Saturday's 4-2 loss to Detroit. Buffalo sits 20th in the league with 2.93 goals per game in 2024-25 and lost 4-2 to Washington on Saturday.

Maple Leafs' Anthony Stolarz: Lands on IR
Stolarz (lower body) was placed on injured reserve Sunday, David Alter of The Hockey News reports.
Stolarz had already been ruled out for Sunday's matchup with the Sabres, but he'll be sidelined until at least Dec. 20 in Buffalo, per Alter. Joseph Woll figures to serve as Toronto's top netminding option while Stolarz is sidelined.

Maple Leafs' Jake McCabe: Contributes helper in loss
McCabe notched an assist, two hits and four blocked shots in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Red Wings.
McCabe has a helper in each of the last two games since he returned from missing five contests due to an upper-body injury. The 31-year-old blueliner was mired in an 11-game point drought prior to the injury. He's now at seven helpers, 23 shots on net, 54 hits, 51 blocked shots, 21 PIM and a plus-10 rating over 25 appearances. McCabe is worth a look in formats that reward physical play -- he's locked in as a top-four option on the Maple Leafs' blue line.

Maple Leafs' Matthew Knies: First goal in six games
Knies scored a goal in a 4-2 loss to the Red Wings on Saturday.
He tipped a Mitch Marner shot past Ville Husso early in the third period to tie the game 2-2. Knies potted his first goal in six games. He's flirting with a 30-goal, 50-point pace this season, though his shooting percentage still hasn't stabilized. Knies has been successful on 22.9 percent of his shots, but he fired at 13.0 percent in his rookie season. Being lucky is good, but even that runs out.

Maple Leafs' Auston Matthews: 50 goals in 2024
Matthews scored a power-play goal Saturday in a 4-2 loss to Detroit.
Matthews has 50 goals in 2024, and it's been four straight calendar years with at least 50 for the Toronto captain. He is the ninth player to accomplish the feat, and the record, shared by Wayne Gretzky (1981-87) and Mike Bossy (1978-84), is seven consecutive years. Matthews has nine points (five goals, four assists) and 33 shots in eight games since returning from an upper-body injury. It's only a matter of time before he goes on a tear.

Maple Leafs' Mitch Marner: Brilliant performance in loss
Marner had two assists Saturday in a 4-2 loss to Detroit.
He also had a goal disallowed on a coach's challenge for offside in the first period. Marner has 40 points, including 30 helpers, and 76 shots in 30 games this season. He's having a fabulous season under coach Craig Berube and is a fantasy pillar for managers.

Maple Leafs' Joseph Woll: Can't clip Wings
Woll made 22 saves in a 4-2 loss to Detroit on Saturday. The fourth goal was an empty-netter
With Anthony Stolarz (lower body) sidelined, Woll is now the go-to guy for the Maple Leafs. The two netminders have formed a statistically dominant duo, and Woll shouldn't have any problems giving Stolarz some time to rest from a day-to-day injury. Woll has gone 8-4-0 with a 2.24 GAA and .918 save percentage this season. The Leafs have a 19-hour turnaround to Sunday's game at home against Buffalo, and Dennis Hildeby may get the call.

Maple Leafs' Nikita Grebenkin: AHL bound
Grebenkin was reassigned to AHL Toronto on Saturday.
The Maple Leafs activated Bobby McMann off injured reserve earlier in the day, leaving Grebenkin as the odd-man out. Grebenkin is without a point in seven NHL games this season, but he has excelled at the AHL level with four goals and 10 points in 13 contests.
