Toronto Maple Leafs
Forward Mitch Marner has not returned to practice. Head coach Sheldon Keefe said earlier in the week that he is unlikely to play against the Philadelphia Flyers on Thursday.
Keefe added that Marner has not skated since Thursday's game in Boston.
The 19-year-old Slafkovsky has taken several therapy days over the past week but has not missed a game due to injury. The former No. 1 overall pick said the therapy days are nothing to worry about.
"No, I'm all good. I'm always ready to play," Slafkovsky said during intermission of Tuesday's 3-0 win over the Columbus Blue Jackets. "I'll be ready every game."
Slafkovsky has 14 goals and 34 points in 65 games this season.

Flames winger A.J. Greer participated in Wednesday's practice in full gear, according to TSN's Salim Valji.
The 27-year-old has not played since Jan. 25 due to an ankle injury. He has six goals and 10 points in 47 games this season.

Green also said there is a "strong possibility" defenceman John Marino will miss tomorrow's game with an upper-body injury, calling him day-to-day.
