Leafs have one more non emergency call up left.

Highly doubt they use it now.

Give Malgin time before you do that.

- Santo_44


Just to add to this and my above post - Malgin deserves more than 3 games to try and find his role and to fit in. So far he has not looked good, but he works. Giving up on a guy after 3 games and not giving him a chance to find his role feels sort of like a Babcock thing to do.

Especially when you consider that given his experience, Malgin is more likely to find a role in the bottom 6 than some of the AHL guys still working on their skills; although I do admit that I think Agostino probably wouldn't be much different than Malgin.

Am I missing something? You can call up anyone from the AHL and send them back down again using the standard waiver rules without it being an emergency call-up, correct?

For instance Brooks, Bracco and Korshkov are still exempt from waivers, so as long as our roster is under 23 (it's at 22), we can call any of them up and send them back down without issue, correct?

If we called up Agostino, he would have to clear waivers to be reassigned to the Marlies.

- Monkeypunk

I think your only allowed 4 call ups post trade deadline.

Leafs used 2 on lily and Sandin. Only on paper just to allow them to play in ahl playoffs. Called up Rosen today so that leaves 1 more.
BINGO!

In fairness, did anyone really have high expectations of Malgin?

I like that he does battle and he is fast. So, he's suited for the bottom 6. That's what we need

Rosen was an emergency call up.

Engvall was in that Sandin/lil group as well for playoffs.
