WINNIPEG — Toronto Maple Leafs head coach Sheldon Keefe says forward Calle Jarnkrok is out week-to-week with a broken knuckle.

Jarnkrok left Maple Leafs practice Friday after a teammate shot a puck off his hand.

The 32-year-old Swede has 10 goals and nine assists in 46 games this season, his second in Toronto.

With Jarnkrok out, forward Ryan Reaves entered the Maple Leafs lineup ahead of a game Saturday night against the Winnipeg Jets.

Reaves, signed to a three-year, US$4.05-million contract last off-season, hadn't played since sustaining a lower-body injury on Dec. 14.

The 37-year-old has one goal in 21 games.
