Robertson returns to Maple Leafs’ lineup with Gregor scratched with illness

Toronto Maple Leafs forward Noah Gregor will not play against the San Jose Sharks Tuesday night because of an illness.

Head coach Sheldon Keefe said after the team’s morning skate that there was a flu bug impacting certain players.

Nick Robertson will make his return to the lineup after spending the last two games as a healthy scratch. He returns to the third line with Max Domi and Calle Jarnkrok.

Robertson has five goals and 11 points in 24 games this season.

Gregor earned a spot on the opening night lineup after spending training camp on a professional tryout. In 37 games this season, the 25-year-old has contributed five goals and seven points.
