Capitals Re-Sign Timothy Liljegren to Two-Year Extension

Washington Capitals defenseman Timothy Liljegren has landed a two-year contract extension. He will be paid $6.5 million over the next two seasons. Liljegren, who celebrated his 27th birthday in April, joined the Capitals from San Jose at the trade deadline. In Washington, the Swedish native made only four appearances, but he could have a significant role in 2026-27. The Capitals have lost a key piece on the back end with John Carlson moving to Washington, and Rasmus Sandin (knee) won't be available at the start of the season. In 311 career games across three teams, Liljegren has recorded 93 points (21 goals, 72 assists), 369 SOG, 482 blocks, and 399 hits.

Timothy Liljegren to Miss Second Straight Game Tuesday

San Jose Sharks defenseman Timothy Liljegren (upper body) won't play on Tuesday against the Vegas Golden Knights, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports. The Swedish blue-liner suffered an upper-body injury during the morning skate ahead of Saturday's matchup against the Seattle Kraken. San Jose plans to re-evaluate Liljegren after Christmas. Liljegren is an important piece in the backline for the Sharks, averaging over 20 minutes of ice time. However, his fantasy stock is at an all-time low, as Liljegren has managed only four assists in 28 games and has no goals. Defensively, the 26-year-old has contributed 63 blocks and 25 hits.

Timothy Liljegren Misses Saturday's Game

San Jose Sharks defenseman Timothy Liljegren (upper body) will miss Saturday's contest against the Seattle Kraken. He will be absent for a second time in four games after sustaining an upper-body injury during the morning skate. Liljegren has had a limited offensive role with the Sharks, recording zero goals and four assists in 28 contests this season. However, his presence will be missed in the defensive zone, as Liljegren sits second on the team with 63 blocks. The Swedish blue-liner will be replaced in the lineup by Vincent Iorio, who will make his 12th appearance of the season. He also hasn't scored a goal this season, logging one assist, 14 blocks, and nine hits.

Timothy Liljegren Sustains Upper-Body Injury

San Jose Sharks defenseman Timothy Liljegren (upper body) was hurt in Saturday's matchup against the Colorado Avalanche, leaving him doubtful for Sunday's meeting with the Detroit Red Wings. The Swedish rearguard left the game with an upper-body injury after he was hit with a puck while on the bench. Health issues have limited Liljegren to nine games this season, during which he has recorded three assists, eight shots, 18 blocks, and 10 hits. Although Liljegren's injury does not appear to be serious, Vincent Iorio, who has been a healthy scratch for the past three games, may get an opportunity to play in his place on Sunday.

Timothy Liljegren Available Against Canadiens

San Jose Sharks defenseman Timothy Liljegren (upper body) will return to the lineup for Thursday's matchup against the Montreal Canadiens. He sat out Monday's meeting with the Winnipeg Jets due to an upper-body injury and was initially regarded as a game-time decision for Thursday. Liljegren has made 44 appearances with the Sharks this season, scoring nine points (four goals, five assists). Additionally, he has registered 64 blocks and 47 hits. On Thursday, Liljegren will likely return to a top-four role and will skate with the second power-play unit.

Timothy Liljegren Sitting Out On Monday

San Jose Sharks defenseman Timothy Liljegren (upper body) will not play on Monday evening against the Winnipeg Jets. Liljegren exited Sunday's contest early with this injury and will now miss at least one game. Prior to exiting, Liljegren logged just over 10 minutes of ice time and logged two shots and one blocked shot. With Liljegren sidelined, fantasy managers should expect Marc-Edouard Vlasic to draw into the starting lineup on Monday evening. Across 45 contests, the 25-year-old has found the back of the net four times and added five helpers. He has logged 66 blocked shots and added 47 hits. Vlasic will likely slot in on the bottom pairing and should not be targeted in any DFS competitions.

Timothy Liljegren Returns For Sharks Monday

San Jose Sharks defenseman Timothy Liljegren (illness) will return to the lineup for Monday's matchup against Boston. He was unavailable on Saturday against the Islanders due to an illness. Liljegren operates in a top-four role and logs regular power-play time in San Jose but hasn't been very impactful. Through 34 outings, the former Maple Leaf has tallied eight points (four goals, four assists) with 47 blocks and 40 hits. He has grown his tally by only three points since December. Henry Thrun played instead of Liljegren at the weekend and will remain in the lineup, with Marc-Edouard Vlasic (illness) ruled out.

Timothy Liljegren Traded To Sharks

The San Jose Sharks have acquired defenseman Timothy Liljegren in a trade with the Toronto Maple Leafs. Defenseman Matt Benning went the other way, along with a 2025 third-round and a 2026 sixth-round draft pick. Liljegren skated in just one game with the Maple Leafs this season, sitting as a healthy scratch. He made 55 appearances last season and performed well. Liljegren finished the 2023-24 campaign with 23 points (three goals, 20 assists), 62 shots, 116 blocks, and 92 hits. He should be a good addition to the Sharks blue line and will definitely have a chance to play regularly. Benning, on the other hand, will have to get used to sitting in the press box. He has zero points in seven games this season with seven shots, 10 blocks, and nine hits.

Timothy Liljegren Draws Back In For Game 5

Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Timothy Liljegren (undisclosed) will draw back into the lineup for Game 5 on Tuesday versus the Boston Bruins. The Swede didn't dress for Game 4 on Saturday, as head coach Sheldon Keefe said Liljegren wasn't 100 percent healthy as the reasoning for the scratch. It doesn't appear Liljegren agrees with that notion. "I don't know, I feel good," Liljegren said. "I was a bit surprised (to come out), but it is what it is." Liljegren is expected to take the spot of T.J. Brodie, who drew in for the first time in the series on Saturday. The 2017 first-round pick turns 25 years old on Tuesday and notched three goals and 23 points on 62 shots on goal with another 116 blocks across 55 games this season.

Timothy Liljegren Could Return Before Postseason

Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Timothy Liljegren (upper body) could be available to the team prior to the postseason. The blue-liner suffered an upper-body injury in a 6-3 loss to the New Jersey Devils on March 26 and has not appeared since. He joined his team's optional morning skate prior to Thursday's contest against the very same Devils team. The Maple Leafs have four games remaining in the regular season. "It's not ruled out. There's a chance," head coach Sheldon Keefe said in regards to whether Liljegren could return prior to the playoffs. "Probably it would just be those last two games that would be good in consideration, but it's possible." The Swede has recorded three goals and 23 points in 52 games as he missed significant time with a high-ankle sprain suffered earlier in the season.

Timothy Liljegren To Miss "Some Time"

Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Timothy Liljegren is nursing an upper-body injury and is expected to be out of the lineup for "some time." Liljegren came out of the lineup Thursday versus Washington, and it looks like he will be forced to miss multiple games. Mark Giordano was activated from long-term Injured Reserve on Thursday and replaced Liljegren in the lineup. Morgan Rielly (upper body) missed a second consecutive game, meaning the Maple Leafs are left quite thin at the back. However, there's hope that Rielly can make a quick return, and it's possible he will be ready for action on Saturday versus Buffalo.

Timothy Liljegren Questionable For Saturday

Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Timothy Liljegren (undisclosed) is questionable for Saturday's game against the visiting New York Rangers. The 24-year-old missed Tuesday's loss to the Vegas Golden Knights as well as Thursday's victory over the Arizona Coyotes due to an undisclosed ailment. Liljegren also missed significant time earlier in the season due to a high-ankle sprain suffered in a Nov. 11 game against the Boston Bruins, costing him six weeks of action. Liljegren has registered two goals and 16 points across 40 games on the season while averaging a career-high 19:27 of average ice time per game. He has also added 57 hits and 87 blocked shots to his ledger. The Maple Leafs are winners of seven of their last eight games heading into Saturday's tilt with the red-hot Rangers.

Timothy Liljegren Out On Tuesday

Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Timothy Liljegren will not dress for Tuesday's home game against the Vegas Golden Knights due to an undisclosed injury. The 24-year-old did not practice on Monday and while head coach Sheldon Keefe initially did not rule him out for Tuesday, he will indeed skip the contest. Liljegren skated 20:40 in Saturday's win over the Colorado Avalanche and has been leaned on heavily of late as No. 1 defenseman Morgan Rielly served a five-game suspension. The Swede has logged a career-high 19:27 of ice time per game while collecting two goals and 16 points across 40 games on the season. Mark Giordano is expected to make his return to the lineup in Liljegren's absence.

Timothy Liljegren Listed As Day-To-Day

Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Timothy Liljegren is listed as day-to-day with an undisclosed injury. Head coach Sheldon Keefe said the right-shot blueliner isn't ruled out for Tuesday's home game against the Vegas Golden Knights. The 24-year-old has been leaned on heavily of late as the club lost fellow defenseman Morgan Rielly to a five-game suspension as Liljegren has logged at least 21:30 of ice time in four of his last five games while he is averaging a career-high 19:27 of ice time per game this season. He has notched two goals and 16 points across 40 games on the season as he missed time with a high ankle sprain earlier in the campaign. The Maple Leafs will carry a seven-game winning streak into Tuesday's contest with Vegas.

Timothy Liljegren Back For Maple Leafs Saturday

Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Timothy Liljegren (ankle) will return from a 17-game absence on Saturday against the Penguins. He's missed a month and a half of action after suffering a high ankle sprain in a game against Boston on Nov. 2. Liljegren has made 10 appearances over the course of the season, recording one point and eight hits with 18 blocks. He might replace T.J. Brodie (illness), who is a game-time decision for Saturday's tilt.

Timothy Liljegren Departs After Awkward Fall Thursday

Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Timothy Liljegren left Thursday's contest against the Boston Bruins in the second period after being upended into the end boards by Bruins forward Brad Marchand. He left the game with an apparent lower leg injury and has been ruled out for the remainder of the contest. The 24-year-old has seen an increased role on the Maple Leafs' blueline this season as his 19:23 average ice time per game is easily a career-high, shattering his previous career-best mark of 17:55 set just last season. However, he has yet to translate his increased ice time into offensive production with just one assist through nine games but he has chipped in a hefty 18 blocks on the season. Liljegren's status should be clearer at some point on Friday.

Timothy Liljegren Ready To Play Tuesday

Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Timothy Liljegren (upper body) will be available for Tuesday's clash with the Kings. The 24-year-old featured for less than 12 minutes against Nashville on Saturday due to an upper-body injury, but it was only a minor issue and won't keep Liljegren out of the lineup. Things haven't gone too well for Liljegren at the start of the 2023-24 season, as he has recorded only one point in eight games with five shots on goal, 15 blocks, and five hits. The Swedish blue-liner is skating with Mark Giordano on the second defensive pairing and has averaged 0:56 of power-play time playing with the second power-play unit,

Timothy Liljegren Good To Go Saturday

Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Timothy Liljegren (upper body) will be in the lineup Saturday against Montreal despite making an early exit Thursday versus Winnipeg. He took a puck to the head against the Jets but luckily avoided injury and is ready to go again. Liljegren has recently enjoyed an offensive spurt with four points in six games, getting to 11 points overall for the season. He has skated in 35 games, adding 40 shots on goal, 70 hits and 51 blocks to his account with a plus-20 rating.

Timothy Liljegren Hurt In Thursday's Win

Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Timothy Liljegren had to exit Thursday's 4-1 win over Winnipeg after taking a puck to the head. The incident occurred in the third period and Liljegren finished with 15:47 of ice time. He had one shot, two blocks and one hit with two penalty minutes in the contest. The Swedish blue-liner has enjoyed a good offensive spell lately, pushing his points tally for the year to 11. In 35 contests, Liljegren has also registered 40 shots, 70 hits and 51 blocks with a plus-20 rating. He's not a scoring machine like Morgan Rielly, but Liljegren plays a quietly effective game on the Maple Leafs blue line and will definitely be a big miss if he doesn't get the green light to play Saturday versus Montreal.

Timothy Liljegren Gets Hurt Versus Rangers

Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Timothy Liljegren had to make an early exit with an upper-body injury as the team's 15-game point streak came to an end Thursday with a 3-1 loss to the Rangers. He logged 10:25 of ice time and blocked two shots before leaving the game. Liljegren was seen walking out of the arena with his right hand wrapped, so he could be out for quite a bit. The team is going to re-evaluate him on Friday. Liljegren boasts only five points in 20 games this season, but he's been a very effective player on the ice, registering a plus-15 rating. He will be missed as a defensive presence, with Liljegren having recorded 35 hits and 27 blocks for the season.
