Leafs' Foligno suffers upper-body injury vs. Habs
The Toronto Maple Leafs' prized trade deadline acquisition Nick Foligno suffered an upper-body injury against the Montreal Canadiens on Monday night, the team announced.
Foligno appeared to hurt himself on an otherwise harmless play in the second period and was later ruled out for the remainder of the contest.

Maple Leafs head coach Sheldon Keefe didn't offer a postgame update on Foligno's status.
The winger entered Monday's tilt with four assists in four games with the Blue and White. Foligno's primarily played on the team's top line with Auston Matthews and Mitch Marner.
The Leafs surrendered a first-round pick and two fourth-rounders to land the pending unrestricted free agent before the deadline.
