Maple Leafs' Connor Dewar: 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.

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.
