NHL releases Statement on Tyler Toffoli's Playoff Return

Back in the Stanley Cup playoffs is none other than Tyler Toffoli. The former Vancouver Canucks forward is making his postseason return for the first time since 2022 with the Winnipeg Jets.

Thursday night against the Calgary Flames, the Jets had the chance to secure their playoff spot, while a loss for the Flames would spell the end of their postseason hopes. The Jets came out on top with a solid 5-2 victory, and Toffoli had hand in it with a goal.


The NHL took notice. They made a post on their public relations account, shining the spotlight on Toffoli as one of only two players on the Jets' roster with a Stanley Cup win under his belt.



At 31 years old, Toffoli's been on fire this season, tearing it up for both the New Jersey Devils and now the Winnipeg Jets. With 51 points in 73 games, including 31 goals and 20 assists, the Scarborough man is showing no signs of slowing down.

With the Jets, Edmonton Oilers, Toronto Maple Leafs and the Vancouver Canucks as the four Canadian teams to make the playoffs so far, the big question is: who's going further in the Stanley Cup Playoffs this spring? We will see what transpires.
