“Joseph Wall rejoined the Toronto Maple Leafs today. Everyone is excited to see him back. He skated. He will join the team for practice. He, because he is on LTIR, won’t be able to rejoin the Maple Leafs in a game until at least November 1st. I think there will be a practice period here. But right now, at this point in time, there’s no determination on when he will actually be able to play. An NHL game. The good news is he can take that step and they’ll see how he goes.”
