Toronto Maple Leafs defenceman Jake Muzzin won’t be with the team as it travels to Philadelphia for Saturday’s matchup against the Flyers, head coach Mike Babcock told reporters Friday.
Babcock said the rearguard was out for “personal reasons.”
Muzzin was at practice Friday, sporting a red non-contact sweater three days after leaving Tuesday’s contest against the Washington Capitals with a leg injury.
The Maple Leafs are 6-5-3 heading into Saturday’s game.
John Tavares will travel with the #Leafs to Philadelphia but they did not say whether or not he’ll be playing
