<p>All in all, it was a strong weekend for the Maple Leafs. That said, it came at a cost as they lost veteran forward Max Pacioretty to a hamstring injury. On Monday morning, the Leafs placed him on IR, and at this point, he’s considered week-to-week. A lot of this will depend on how his body responds to treatment. All things considered, though, Pacioretty dodged a big-time bullet. He’s been a super addition for this team thus far. Cheers to a speedy recovery!</p>
