The Leafs have been without their starting goalie Ilya Samsonov for just one game so far but Head Coach Sheldon Keefe just shared some troubling news regarding his health.

Samsonov left the Leafs Saturday night with a undisclosed injury, the team did not think he would miss time due to injury however he was not seen at practice today, causing concerns among fans.

"I would say the same," Keefe said. "He has been skating for the last couple of days, but he wasn't going to play tonight regardless. Today is a chance for him to work his way back.

Keefe is hoping that the injury isn't going to hold him out the lineup for too long calling it a day-to-day injury.
