With the trade deadline less than 48 hours away, the Maple Leafs are protecting their assets and keeping several players out of the lineup on Wednesday, including Scott Laughton. The Maple Leafs acquired Laughton at the deadline last season, but he could be on the move again. The 31-year-old forward is averaging 13:40 time-on-ice and has 12 points (8G / 4A) in 43 games this season.
Laughton suffered a lower-body injury towards the end of training camp, made his season debut on November 5th, and only played two games before suffering an upper-body injury. The 31-year-old Laughton was limited to only four points (2G / 2A) in 20 games with the Maple Leafs after being acquired before last season's trade deadline. The Maple Leafs hope that he can return to the production he had in his previous two full seasons with the Philadelphia Flyers, when he scored 82 points (31G / 51A) in 160 games.

Laughton was absent from practice on Monday to attend to the birth of his child but will be ready to suit on Tuesday against the Washington Capitals. The 30-year-old Laughton has had a high-impact presence early in the 2024-25 season, tallying four points (2G / 2A) and 18 hits through five games.

Laughton will return from injured reserve after missing the Flyers' last four games due to an upper-body injury. The 28-year-old will have a welcome return for Philadelphia who has lost ten straight games. Laughton has three goals and seven points with 44 SOG while averaging a career-high 19:09 TOI.
Laughton is now expected to be out approximately two weeks after it was announced Tuesday he had been placed on the injured reserve due to an upper-body injury. It is a massive loss for the already-injured Flyers as Laughton had averaged 19:09 TOI in a constant top-six role through 18 games this season. He had three goals and seven points with a -10 plus/minus and 44 SOG prior to the injury.
