Toronto Maple Leafs winger Ilya Mikheyev has earned a promotion to the second line for Saturday's contest versus Colorado. He's replacing Mitchell Marner (COVID-19 protocols) in the top six. The 27-year-old Russian has been sidelined for most of the season with a broken thumb, but he's left quite an impression in his first few outings of the campaign with three goals in three games. He'll also soak up minutes on the second power-play unit. Marner's absence also means that Alexander Kerfoot, who's racked up four points in the last two games, will ride with Auston Matthews on the top line.--Taavi Pailk - RotoBaller
