Some injury news came over the wire on Twitter this morning that Fredrik Sjostrom is still a month away from returning to action from off-season shoulder surgery. This will put the winger out of commission until the start of the season, which I would imagine would keep him out of the loop for at least a week (or more) into the regular season, having to make up for some of the Summer and training camp.Sjostrom's 2010 numbers likely have him outside of the realm of the draft this year, but he might figure into the Sheet pool, since the Leafs forwards depth will be a definite challenge in 2011.
Another interesting tweet regarding the Leafs had coach Ron Wilson already penciling J-S Giguere in as their number one guy in net. Of course, this is still in pencil and could change before the first game of the season, but the idea is now out there, so unless we hear anything different, let's assume this is the case.
