Defenceman Simon Benoit is back at practice after missing yesterday's session for the birth of his first child. In first season with Toronto in 2023-24, Benoit had five points in 64 games and signed a three-year extension with the team earlier this year. 

Benoit is paired with Timothy Liljegren to start the day in Group 2 while Oliver Ekman-Larsson is with Jake McCabe for the second day in a row.

With Lorentz out, Roni Hirvonen is skating with David Kampf and Ryan Reaves. 

William Nylander remains at centre alongside Max Domi and Calle Jarnkrok. 


Washington Capitals

Defenceman Rasmus Sandin is absent from training camp for a second straight day due to visa issues, per Sammi Silber of The Hockey News. 

The 24-year-old had three goals and 23 points in 68 games last season for the Capitals. He signed a five-year, $23 million extension with Washington on March 6.
