Oliver Ekman-Larsson Unavailable Against Wild
Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Oliver Ekman-Larsson (personal) won't play on Sunday night against the Minnesota Wild. He is away from the team for the birth of his child. The Swedish veteran has had a solid season on a struggling team, recording 35 points (eight goals, 27 assists) in 65 outings. To bolster its defensive depth, Toronto recalled Henry Thrun from the minors on an emergency basis. Ekman-Larsson averages around 21 minutes of ice time, so his absence creates a significant gap at the back. Troy Stecher is expected to take his place in the lineup.
