Connor Dewar - NHL News & Rumors

Gets first point of campaign Dewar registered a shorthanded assist and three blocked shots in Tuesday's 2-1 overtime win over the Devils.

Impact Dewar set up a Pontus Holmberg tally to tie the game at 1-1 midway through the third period. The helper was Dewar's first point in 12 appearances this season. The 25-year-old has filled a fourth-line role, adding physicality -- 27 hits and 10 blocked shots -- since he recovered from offseason shoulder surgery. Given his limited scoring upside, Dewar is not a strong option for fantasy managers.

Recalled, activated of LTIR Dewar (shoulder) was recalled from his conditioning stint with AHL Toronto and activated off long-term injured reserve Friday.

Impact Dewar's promotion and activation comes after Auston Matthews (upper body) was placed on injured reserve in a corresponding move. Even with his return to the NHL roster, the 25-year-old Dewar is far from a lock to suit up against the Red Wings on Friday and may have to watch from the press box as a healthy scratch. Still, Dewar notched a goal and an assist during his conditioning assignment and could offer decent offensive upside in a bottom-six role if he can edge out Ryan Reaves, Steven Lorentz or David Kampf for a spot in the lineup.

Impact Dewar figures to suit up for the Marlies in their matchup with AHL Cleveland on Saturday before potentially being called back up to the NHL roster. Once given the all-clear from his shoulder problem, Dewar should be in the mix for a spot in the Leafs' lineup -- though he may find himself periodically switching between the AHL and NHL.

Moves to LTIR Dewar (shoulder) was placed on long-term injured reserve Wednesday, PuckPedia reports.

Impact Dewar was placed on injured reserve Monday while he continues to recover from offseason shoulder surgery, and he'll be unavailable for several weeks to begin the regular season after being transferred to long-term injured reserve. The 25-year-old skated with his teammates last week, but it's not yet clear when he'll be in the mix to return to game action.

Placed on injured reserve Monday Dewar (shoulder) was placed on injured reserve Monday.

Impact Dewar underwent offseason shoulder surgery and was initially expected to be ready for the start of training camp. While he hasn't suffered any setbacks, the Maple Leafs ruled him out indefinitely in mid-September, and he was expected to start the regular season on injured reserve. However, Dewar skated with his teammates Wednesday, and it's encouraging that he wasn't placed on LTIR. It's not yet clear when he'll be able to return, but he appears to be progressing in his recovery.

Skates Wednesday Dewar (shoulder) was on the ice Wednesday, per David Alter of The Hockey News.

Impact Dewar, who underwent offseason shoulder surgery, was previously expected to start the 2024-25 campaign on injured reserve, and while that still might be the case, the 25-year-old forward skating with his teammates is a positive sign. He had 11 goals, 19 points, 28 PIM, 123 hits and 38 blocks in 74 regular-season outings between Minnesota and Toronto in 2023-24.

Still without timeline Dewar (shoulder) remains out indefinitely following offseason shoulder surgery, though he hasn't suffered any setbacks, Dave McCarthy of NHL.com reports Wednesday.

Impact Dewar seems on track to start the season on injured reserve, possibly even LTIR depending on his recovery. After being acquired from the Wild last year, the 25-year-old center played in 17 games for the Leafs in which he notched one goal, four assists and 29 hits while averaging 12:54 of ice time. Dewar's absence could open the door for Max Pacioretty to turn his PTO into a full contract during training camp.

Grabs one-year deal Dewar (shoulder) inked a one-year, $1.18 million contract with Toronto on Tuesday.

Impact Dewar suited up in 17 regular-season contests for the Leafs last season after he was acquired via trade. In those outings, the 25-year-old center notched one goal, four assists and 20 shots while averaging 12:54 of ice time. While the Manitoba native is expected to recover in time for training camp from his shoulder injury, he probably shouldn't be expected to offer more than mid-range fantasy value, at best, given his lack of power-play minutes and bottom-six role.

JULY 23 • ROTOWIRE

Slated for shoulder surgery Dewar will undergo offseason shoulder surgery but is expected to be ready for training camp, David Alter of The Hockey News reports Friday.

Impact Dewar ended the season mired in a 14-game goal drought during which he recorded four assists, 14 shots and 26 hits while averaging 11:54 of ice time. Acquired by the Leafs at the trade deadline, Dewar will be a restricted free agent this summer and should be back for another year with the Leafs, likely still filling a bottom-six role.

The 24-year-old forward is up to 11 points, 47 shots on net, 87 hits and a minus-9 rating through 52 appearances. Dewar plays on the fourth line, and his lack of offense makes him a no-go for most fantasy managers.
