Maple Leafs' Ondrej Kase: Placed on LTIR

Kase (concussion) has been placed on long-term injured reserve, per CapFriendly.

Kase suffered the concussion March 19 versus the Predators, so he's already missed about half of the minimum time necessary with an LTIR designation. He'll first be eligible to return April 12 versus the Sabres, but the winger is considered out indefinitely. Kase has a history of concussions, so the Maple Leafs will understandably be cautious with his recovery this time.
