Today brought noteworthy developments regarding Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Ila Samsonov.

While yesterday marked his official clearance from waivers and assignment to the AHL affiliate Toronto Marlies, recent reports by Josh Kloke of The Athletic reveal a surprising absence at the Marlies' practice.

Even more intriguing is Kloke's update that Samsonov won't be partaking in team practices throughout the week.

This unexpected twist in Samsonov's situation implies that he won't be featuring in any Marlies games this week. The team, however, has adopted a deliberate strategy, opting for an off-ice approach to rebuild Samsonov's confidence.

Recognizing his solid goaltending skills and sound mechanics, the decision reflects a thoughtful effort to address his current struggle with routine saves. This measured approach aims to restore Samsonov's confidence, allowing him to regain his form and resume his crucial role in stopping pucks for the team.
