TORONTO -- Randy Carlyle stepped up to the microphone and knew the question about Dave Bollands status was coming. "Who?" Carlyle said with a laugh. "Bolly is actually having an assessment done right now and I would say that hes a probable for us for tonight." Before game time, probable became more than likely as the Leafs activated Bolland off long-term injured reserve, paving the way for his return Saturday night against the Montreal Canadiens. Bolland missed 56 straight games since suffering a severed tendon in the back of his left ankle Nov. 2 when he was cut by the skate blade of Canucks forward Zack Kassian. "Hes progressed along over the last three weeks to a point where the doctors feel, medically, that hes close to 100 per cent ready," Carlyle said. To make room for Bolland and his cap hit, the Leafs sent winger Carter Ashton to the AHLs Toronto Marlies early Saturday afternoon and then centre Peter Holland later on. Bolland was not made available to speak to reporters Saturday. When he addressed his status after Fridays practice, the 27-year-old centre said that "hopefully something clicks" that allows him to feel ready to go. "A few weeks ago when you sort of had the little doubts of when this was going to go upwards and when things were going to start getting positive, we were getting a little doubtful," Bolland said. "But things are getting up there and things are working. Its been the little things in the gym that have helped this get stronger." Now that he has the green light, its full speed ahead. Bolland is expected to centre the Leafs third line between Mason Raymond and David Clarkson. That would mean Bolland is likely not to play 19 minutes 30 seconds like he did in his final full game before getting injured, but Carlyle doesnt know if hed limit his ice time. "Well see how the game goes," Carlyle said. "Obviously youd like to get more people involved the hockey game. Everybody talks about a four-line game. Four lines this, four lines that but we havent been really went that mode. "Wed like to be able to do that on a more regular basis. With an addition of a Bolland it gives you a little bit more depth throughout your lineup with a veteran guy and it slots people more into where we envisioned them at the beginning of the year." The lineup the Leafs envisioned and had at the start of the year also included goaltender Jonathan Bernier, but the Laval, Que., native wont be ready to dress against the Habs. Carlyle said Bernier is still experiencing problems relating to his groin injury. James Reimer, who did not take part in the morning skate, will make his fourth straight start. Drew MacIntyre is expected to serve as his backup. Fake Vans For Sale .

Black had been ejected in the top of the inning for unloading on first base umpire Clint Fagan, who had just ruled that Yasiel Puig checked his swing on a 2-2 pitch with Matt Kemp on second and two outs in a tie game. Things have been going the Padres way lately. Puig struck out swinging and then Amarista lifted San Diego to a 2-1 win against the Los Angeles Dodgers on Saturday night. For the first time in franchise history, the Padres managed to win extra-inning games on three straight days. "That was really a critical point of the game," Black said of the ejection. "When you think about it, Yasiel Puig up, with Matt Kemp at second base, in the 10th inning. I think Todd Tichenor is one of the best umpires in the National League. The fellow at first is a good, young umpire. I thought he swung. Thats the bottom line. Obviously in the heat of the moment I reacted like I did because youre trying to win a major league game and its hard to win sometimes." When Puig checked his swing, catcher Yasmani Grandal asked Tichenor to appeal to Fagan, who said he didnt go. A few moments later, Fagan was tossing Black. Will Venable started the winning rally with a single to centre off Jamey Wright (4-4) and stole second as pinch-hitter Rymer Liriano struck out. Amarista then lofted a single over shortstop Hanley Ramirez, and Venable slid in headfirst just ahead of the throw. "This is another game that sort of builds confidence for our guys and they realize we can beat a first-place team," Black said. The Dodgers lead in the NL West was to cut to 2 1/2 games over San Francisco, which beat Milwaukee 3-1 behind former Padres star Jake Peavy. Tim Stauffer (6-2) pitched the 10th for the win for the Padres, who remain mired in third in the division, 11 games back. "I think the main thing weve seen is, were not swinging the bats as good and it goes back to giving the other guys credit," Dodgers manager Don Mattingly said. "They did a nice job with us and they always have. We have to make adjustments back." The Padres had runners on first and second with no outs in the ninth when Yasmani Grandal lined a shot back at J.P. Howell. The reliever somehow caught the ball, turned and doubbled Abraham Almonte off second.ddddddddddddBrian Wilson came on and got Jedd Gyorko to fly out to left. Starters Zack Greinke and Ian Kennedy both pitched well. On June 12, 2013, Kennedy, then with Arizona, was one of six players and coaches ejected after a brawl with the Dodgers. Kennedy hit Puig and Greinke with high pitches. Greinke held San Diego to one run and four hits in eight innings. He struck out eight and walked two. Kennedy went seven innings, also allowing one run and four hits while striking out eight and walking three. Kennedy doubled into the gap in right-centre with one out in the third to bring in Rene Rivera and give San Diego a 1-0 lead. Rivera was aboard on a leadoff double down the left-field line. Adrian Gonzalez tied it with a drive into a party deck on the right-field wall with two outs in the sixth. It was his 19th homer. Gonzalez extended to 61 his record for home runs at Petco Park. He hit 47 when he was with the Padres from 2006-2010. Puig was back in the Dodgers lineup a day after being benched because Mattingly felt the outfielder was frustrated. Puig struck out in his first two at-bats. In the sixth, he lifted a high fly ball to deep centre field and flipped his bat, thinking it was a home run. Instead, it was just another long fly ball to the fence at spacious Petco Park. TREVOR TIME Before the game, Trevor Hoffman was inducted into the Padres Hall of Fame. When he retired after the 2010 season, Hoffman was baseballs career saves leader with 601, 552 of them in 16 seasons with the Padres. He is currently the Padres upper-level pitching co-ordinator. LATE HEROICS The Padres have won in their last at-bat in three straight games. Its the first time they have accomplished that feat since they did it four straight times from April 13-16, 1986.
