Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Jake Muzzin is out indefinitely due to a cervical spine injury and will be re-evaluated in February, the team announced Monday.
Muzzin hasn't played since Oct. 17, when an awkward collision with Arizona Coyotes forward Clayton Keller forced him to leave the game. The veteran blue-liner has registered one assist in four contests this season.
Muzzin has a history of head and neck injuries. He was stretchered off the ice during the 2020 qualifying round and also missed time last campaign due to concussions.
