The concussion stuff is nonsense. CJ said as well it happened off a hit in game 3/4. Most plausible is this:
Wtf bullshit tackle was that?

Athletic article
Given the highly secretive nature of how teams operate during the Stanley Cup playoffs, specific details about what is ailing Matthews are difficult to come by.
What is known is that the 26-year-old played through illness in Games 3 and 4 of the series before suffering an injury on an innocuous hit while playing sick, according to the sources. Team doctors removed Matthews from the lineup during the second intermission of Game 4 and he’s been unable to participate in a full team skate since.
While Matthews has taken to the ice each of the past three days — he went through a 30-minute session with members of the player development staff at Scotiabank Arena on Thursday morning — one of the sources said it would be “reckless” for him to try and play through whatever is hampering him.
In video shot by The Hockey News during Thursday’s session, Matthews can be seen performing drills where he tips pucks, cradles and releases passes and takes one-timers. He also skated much more than he did during a brief on-ice session at TD Garden before Game 5 on Tuesday morning.
It looked like progress.
Which is why the Leafs as an organization need to pull their heads out of their asses and retaliate in kind to these types of plays. If someone on the Leafs did that to Pasta, do we believe for half a second Marchand doesn't accidentally on purpose take a Leaf out? Leafs though will turn the other cheek and continue to get punked.Based off the Bennett-Knies chokeslam WWE moves are allowed in playoffs
Ya, if it was salmonella Matthews should fire his personal chefHe is out due to in injury for sure, not an illness.
Lets just hope he is ready for game 7 if the team gets there.
Oh, that would be the McAvoy bodyslam right before Boston would score the tying goal. People were screaming about that one; how was that NOT a penalty?Wtf bullshit tackle was that?
You mean give that cementhead George Parros an excuse to interfere? No thanks.Which is why the Leafs as an organization need to pull their heads out of their asses and retaliate in kind to these types of plays.
No.Most plausible is MSK injury
Because its the NHL. They have by far the worst refs in pro sports.How’s that not a call?
That was when it was reported as only an illness. CJ has said since then he is also dealing with an injury on top of that which specifically happened in the last two games, they're not going to disclose that.No.
They've said it waxes and wanes, comes and goes, and he's been dealing with it for a while (more like months and days or weeks).
When someone guess Mono ... that was a possibility.
If a Leafs player does this, it ends up as a penalty and probably a suspension.

Athletes play with some pretty nasty knee injuries. If one of the stability ligaments was torn i don't think he would be skating.If it's his knee I don't see how he's back this season, no matter how many rounds we make it.
So let's hope it's not.

AgreedProbably wouldn't be flying with any serious concussion symptoms.
I guessed that based on Timmins having Mono. Being around a locker room might predispose someone else getting for all I know. I think it might be his knee or ankle since he had that take down by Evil Baby face behind the net and then someone else when he was going for a puck in the corner in either the same game or next game.No.

But the reports (from my bad memory) were that it has been going on for a while, well into the regular season.I think it might be his knee or ankle since he had that take down by Evil Baby face behind the net and then someone else when he was going for a puck in the corner in either the same game or next game.
yea, the whole "ongoing illness" talk seems inconsistent with having him play down the stretch and the for the first couple of games.But the reports (from my bad memory) were that it has been going on for a while, well into the regular season.
very true.yea, the whole "ongoing illness" talk seems inconsistent with having him play down the stretch and the for the first couple of games.
