Toffoli last played on Dec. 4 in a 4-3 overtime loss to the Nashville Predators in which he registered two assists. The team recalled forward Laurent Dauphin from the AHL’s Laval Rocket as a replacement earlier this week.
In 26 games this season, Toffoli has five goals and 17 points — one point behind Nick Suzuki for the lead in team scoring.
