The Toronto Maple Leafs had a strong showing at home on Wednesday night, beating the Edmonton Oilers 6-2 and extending their winning streak to three games. As the third period ticked away, defenseman Travis Dermott was checked into the boards by Oilers forward Brad Malone and was forced to leave the game due to a shoulder injury per Toronto Maple Leafs PR.
Having already announced earlier in the day that defenseman Jake Gardiner will be out week-to-week with back spasms, the Toronto Maple Leafs will now be without Travis Dermott for what seems to be an extended period of time with a shoulder injury.
