Joshua did not play in Toronto's most recent game due to an illness, but was back at practice on Monday, and should be ready to suit up on Tuesday against the Chicago Blackhawks. The 29-year-old Joshua is averaging 12:26 time-on-ice, recording 99 hits and nine points (5G / 4A) in 29 games this season.
Maccelli did not practice on Monday due to illness, and it is unclear whether he will be ready to suit up when Toronto returns to action tomorrow against the Chicago Blackhawks. That said, Maccelli has been a healthy scratch for the previous two weeks and was probably not being rushed back into the lineup with the team playing above .500 during that stretch.
Rifai has yet to play this season, but could make his debut, returning from a wrist injury on Saturday against the Edmonton Oilers. The 27-year-old defenseman only has two games of NHL experience.
Carlo has not played since November 13th due to a lower-body injury. He was seemingly nearing his return, but suffered a setback and ultimately underwent foot surgery on December 3rd. The 29-year-old defenseman was averaging 20:04 time-on-ice and scored two assists in 18 games before his injury.
Woll has not played since suffering a lower-body injury late in a 5-1 win over the Carolina Hurricanes on December 4th. He was given a roughly one-week recovery timeline, which seems to hold true after returning to practice on Wednesday. The recent success of Dennis Hildeby between the pipes for the Maple Leafs gives the team a bit more leeway in easing Woll back into the lineup, as he will not play on Saturday against the Edmonton Oilers.
Joseph Woll (lower body) is nearing a return, but is not eligible to be activated from Injured Reserve yet, leaving the Maple Leafs' crease to Hildeby on Thursday against the San Jose Sharks. The 24-year-old Hildeby has been sensational while filling in as the team's de facto starting goalie and is coming off his first career shutout, a 29-save performance in a 2-0 win over the Tampa Bay Lightning. He has a 2.15 GAA and .936 SV% in nine appearances this season (2-2-2). The Maple Leafs enter the action on Thursday as sizable -193 home favorites against a Sharks team that has scored fewer than two goals in three of their last four games (1-3-0).
Rielly was battling an illness, but will be ready to suit up when the Maple Leafs return to action on Thursday against the San Jose Sharks. Already battling a myriad of injuries on their blueline, the Maple Leafs would ill-afford to be without their icetime leader, Morgan Rielly. The 31-year-old Rielly is putting together an excellent season, with 22 points (5G / 17A) in 28 games.

With Dakota Mermis (lower body) placed on Injured Reserve, the Maple Leafs have recalled Thrun from the Marlies (AHL). The 24-year-old Thrun was a regular on San Jose's blueline the past two seasons, but has spent the entirety of the 2025-26 campaign in the AHL, where he has nine points (3G / 6A) in 19 games with the Marlies.
