Jack Campbell will be out weeks for the Maple Leafs with a leg injury.
"So not days, but weeks," Maple Leafs coach Sheldon Keefe said Tuesday. "We're obviously going to monitor his recovery over that time."
The goalie, who appeared to sustain the injury in the third period of a 3-2 win against the Calgary Flames on Sunday, made 31 saves and played the entire game. He is 2-0-0 with a 2.00 goals-against average and .923 save percentage this season.
Frederik Andersen will start against the Flames at Scotiabank Saddledome on Tuesday (9 p.m. ET; SN1, SNO, NHL.TV). Michael Hutchinson will be the backup and Joseph Woll will be called up from the taxi squad.
"We'll get 'Soupy' back to health whenever we can, whenever he's feeling up to it," Keefe said. "But we still have lots of confidence in both Fred and 'Hutch'. That's the game. That's what you go through. That's why you try to set yourself up with as much depth as possible to deal with whatever might come our way. I do think the way the schedule sets up here now, it's pretty favorable for us and for Fred Andersen's workload."
