Connolly Is Expected To Return In Tomorrow Night's Game

Connolly will be returning against the New York Rangers in tomorrow nights game. Connolly stepped on a stick during a practice before the season started and ended up slamming into the boards injuring himself, Connolly has missed 85 games over the last four years due to his injuries. Connnolly has averaged 1 point a game for the last couple season's even after missing large chunks of the season's, so he has proved himself to be a very worthy player (when hes there). Lombardi will most likely be the player that will be dropped to the third line in order to make room for Connolly, which will create a line of Lupol, Connolly and Kessel. Connolly is expected to be setting up plays and shots for Kessel but is it going to end up the other way around, will Kessel be pulling Conolly up? Lets hope that Toronto knows what they are doing with the lines because so far what they are doing is working well for them. Will Connolly make it the rest of the season or will he be injured once again before the playoffs? Only time will tell and we will have to find out the hard way.
