Status report
The Maple Leafs did not hold a morning skate after they defeated the Tampa Bay Lightning 5-2 on Monday. … Toronto coach Craig Berube said Monday that Woll, who missed the first six games, could “possibly” return from a lower-body injury and make his season debut. … Reaves may replace Kampf, a forward. … … The Blue Jackets will revert to the standard 12 forwards and six defensemen after using seven defensemen against the Minnesota Wild on Saturday. … Merzlikins will be the backup goalie after being unavailable for two games with an upper-body injury. … Sillinger is moving up from the third line to replace Chinakhov; Aston-Reese dropped from the second to third line. … Labanc was a healthy scratch the past two games. … Harris, a defenseman, is expected to come out.
