Toronto forward Max Pacioretty has been ruled out for the Maple Leafs' game Monday night against the visiting Tampa Bay Lightning because of an upper-body injury.

The 20-year-old centered the Maple Leafs' third line with Max Domi and Nick Robertson on his wings. Minten was recalled from the Marlies on Thursday after John Tavares went down with an injury at practice. Before Toronto's morning skate got underway, a few of the team's injured players were seen on the ice.

Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Joseph Woll received a maintenance day and did not practice Tuesday. Woll has been operating as the Maple Leafs’ No. 1 goaltender and has started in Toronto’s past four games.

Pacioretty got hit in the head by the puck in Toronto's 7-3 win over Montreal on Saturday. He stayed in the game, finishing with three shots on goal and four hits in 10:19 of ice time. Based on the morning skate, Fraser Minten and Connor Dewar will replace Pacioretty and Ryan Reaves, a healthy scratch, in Monday's lineup.

Seeking to fire up the lethargic Leafs from a 3-0 deficit at the time, the 38-year-old Reaves tried to goad Xhekaj. While like-minded scrappers usually engage, the latter refused, gesturing to the scoreboard trying to make Reaves look silly. From that point, the Leafs scored seven unanswered.
