Liljegren was traded from the Maple Leafs to the Sharks on Wednesday, in exchange for a 2025 third-round pick, a 2026 sixth-round pick and Matt Benning. - Liljegren has fallen out of favor with the Maple Leafs, but he should get a larger opportunity to play with the Sharks. The 25-year-old is also under contract for one more year. Liljegren will likely get bottom-four minutes once he makes his Sharks debut, but the lack of proven talent on his new team's blue line gives him a better chance to earn a bigger role. |

Liljegren had a goal and an assist in a 6-2 win over the Flyers on Thursday. - Liljegren pushed the score to 3-0 with a shot from just inside the blue line at 15:30 of the first period. It stood as the winner. Liljegren hadn't picked up a goal in 22 games, and his overall play had of late has been mid (at best). The points don't erase his on-ice scuffles by any means, but it was a great night to boost his confidence. |

Liljegren took part in practice Saturday and will be a game-time decision versus the Rangers, per David Alter of The Hockey News. - Liljegren has missed the last two games. He had been on a bit of a tear of late -- picking up seven assists in his last six games. He has two goals and 16 points in 40 games this season.

Liljegren notched two assists, two shots on goal, three hits and four blocked shots in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Coyotes. - Liljegren helped get the Maple Leafs on the right path early, providing both assists in the first period. He has seven helpers over his last four games -- he's stepped up in a big way while the team's defense corps was missing multiple regulars. Liljegren is likely to see a reduced role starting Thursday, as Morgan Rielly is poised to return from a five-game suspension. Liljegren has 16 points, 41 shots on net, 53 hits, 83 blocked shots and a plus-7 rating over 38 appearances, and he should still remain in a top-four role. |

Overall, Liljegren's up to 14 points (two goals, 12 assists) through 36 games this season.

Liljegren scored a goal on three shots, dished an assist, added two hits and went plus-2 in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Hurricanes. - Liljegren got the Maple Leafs on the board early in the third period and helped out on Nick Robertson's tally in the final minute. Both of Liljegren's multi-point efforts have come in the last five games, a span in which he has one goal and four helpers. The 24-year-old is at six points, 14 shots on net, 18 hits, 41 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating through 17 appearances this season. He should continue to hold down a bottom-four role with power-play time, which could give him fantasy appeal in deeper formats. |
None |
| Dec. 22, 2023 |
Liljegren collected two assists, one on the power play and one shorthanded, in Thursday's 9-3 loss to the Sabres. - He also added five blocked shots, three shots on net, two hits and a minus-1 rating to his ledger. It's the first multi-point performance of the season for Liljegren, who missed six weeks earlier this season due to an ankle injury, and through 13 contests he has zero goals and three helpers. The 24-year-old blueliner has supplied a little extra fantasy value with 33 blocked shots, including 15 in three games since his return to the lineup, but Liljegren would likely need to work his way up to Toronto's first power-play unit to be worth rostering in most formats. |

Liljegren (ankle) is back at practice Saturday, according to Terry Koshan of The Toronto Sun. - Liljegren is seeing time at the morning skate as the seventh defenseman. He has been out of action since Nov. 2 due to a high-ankle sprain and still has plenty of work to do before he gets back into the lineup. Liljegren has one assist in 10 games this season. |
None |

The Maple Leafs put Liljegren (ankle) on long-term injured reserve Saturday. - Liljegren suffered a high-ankle sprain late in the first period of Thursday's 3-2 shootout loss to Boston, Chris Johnston of The Athletic reports. He won't be eligible to return before Nov. 30 against Seattle. It's a tough loss for the Maple Leafs because Liljegren was eating up valuable minutes as a second-pairing defenseman. Liljegren has one assist, 18 blocked shots and eight hits in 10 games this season. |
None |

Liljegren (lower body) won't return to Thursday's game versus the Bruins. - Liljegren was hurt after logging just 4:49 of ice time in the contest. This is the second time in a week he's left a game early, but his previous injury was an upper-body issue. If Liljegren can't shake off this injury before Saturday's game versus the Sabres, the Maple Leafs will have to either call up a defenseman or play one player short to unlock the ability for emergency recalls. |
None |

Liljegren (upper body) will be in the lineup for Tuesday's game versus Los Angeles, NHL.com's Dave McCarthy reports. - Liljegren exited Saturday's loss to the Predators with an upper-body issue after recording just 11:45 of ice time, but it appears the injury that forced him from that contest wasn't overly serious. Look for the 24-year-old Swede, who's picked up one helper through eight games this season, to skate on the second pairing and the second power-play unit against the Kings. |
None |
| Oct. 28, 2023 |
Liljegren sustained a lower-body injury and is doubtful to return to Saturday's game versus Nashville. - Liljegren left the contest midway through the second period after absorbing a hit from the Predators' Yakov Trenin, David Alter of Sports Illustrated reports. Going into Saturday's action, Liljegren had an assist, five hits and 13 blocks in seven appearances while averaging 20:16 of ice time this season. Another Maple Leafs defenseman, Jake McCabe, suffered a lower-body injury Thursday, so Toronto will probably need to call someone up if neither blueliner is available for Tuesday's contest against the Kings. |

Liljegren scored a goal Thursday in a 3-2 win over the Rangers. - Liljegren tied the game 1-1 early in the third period from just inside the right circle, closest to the wall, that ricocheted off Niko Mikkola's stick blade and fluttered through Jaroslav Halak's five-hole.

Liljegren scored a goal on four shots, added an assist and went plus-2 in Sunday's 5-1 win over the Kraken. - Liljegren set up a Mark Giordano tally in the first period and then scored one of his own later in the frame. Sunday's two-point effort snapped a 10-game dry spell for Liljegren, who went plus-2 with 13 shots on net and 18 blocked shots in that span. The 23-year-old blueliner has the potential to be a solid depth contributor, but fantasy managers will likely want to see him sustain some offense before picking him up. He has five goals, 10 helpers, 61 shots on net, 82 hits, 74 blocked shots and a plus-26 rating through 49 appearances this season. |

As long as the Maple Leafs are battling multiple injuries on the blue line, the Swede should be in line for a top-four role. |

Liljegren is expected to be sidelined for Leafs' training camp with an undisclosed injury, Sportsnet's Chris Johnston reports Tuesday. - Liljegren should probably be considered questionable for Opening Night against Montreal at this point. Even if he does crack the lineup for the season opener, the 23-year-old blueliner figures to have some ring rust to shake off. Last year, the Swede set new personal bests in games played (61), goals (five) and assists (18). Barring a long-term stint on the sidelines, Liljegren should be capable of putting up 25-30 points this year. |

Liljegren penned a two-year, $2.8 million contract extension with Toronto on Monday. - Liljegren set new personal bests in games (61), goals (five) and assists (18) this past season and figures to remain a fixture on the Leafs' blue line next year.
