The Toronto Maple Leafs announced that star forward Auston Matthews has a lower-body injury that will keep him out of Tuesday's home game against the New Jersey Devils.
Matthews is considered day-to-day, the Leafs said.
Matthews, 28, had four points in two weekend games for Toronto -- a goal and two assists in a win over Ottawa and one assist in an overtime loss at Detroit.
He has 27 points (15 goals, 12 assists) over 33 games this season. Matthews also sat out five games in November with a lower-body ailment.
The Maple Leafs (17-15-6, 40 points) enter the night tied for last in the Eastern Conference with the Columbus Blue Jackets.
