William Karlsson will make his return to the lineup Monday for the Vegas Golden Knights to begin their second-round series against the Anaheim Ducks, coach John Tortorella said.

Karlsson has missed the past six months with a lower-body injury. He last played Nov. 8 against Anaheim.

Tortorella did not disclose who will come out of the lineup in place of the Original Misfit.

“Just a good man,” said Tortorella, who coached Karlsson while in Columbus. “Doesn’t speak a whole lot. Just plays the game the right way. Looking forward to having him back in the lineup.”

This is a developing story. Check back later for updates.
