It’s safe to say that since the first game of the season, the Toronto Maple Leafs have been without their complete lineup. Injuries to Scott Laughton and Steven Lorentz have derailed them up front, while Chris Tanev’s health has been an issue on the back end. On Tuesday, however, the team seemingly received good news as it was reported that both Laughton and Lorentz were back in regulars white jerseys ahead of the team’s practices – meaning their return to the Maple Leafs’ lineup is imminent. Laughton hasn’t played a game this season for the Maple Leafs after an injury in the preseason sidelined the 31-year-old Oakville native. He had two goals and four points in 20 games after coming over to the Maple Leafs last season from the Philadelphia Flyers. His return would boost the team’s bottom-six as they continue to build that new identity.
