"Joseph Woll appears ready to return to NHL action, after two appearances with the AHL's Toronto Marlies. Woll was activated by the Maple Leafs on Friday, sending Artur Akhtyamov back to the Marlies. Easton Cowan was called up to the Leafs, and participated on the third line with Sammy Blais and Nicolas Roy during Friday's practice. Scott Laughton skated in a red non-contact jersey, getting some reps with Robertson and Nylander."
""I don't think I necessarily had a game circled for my return here, but I think my plan was to play those games (with) the Marlies and to rejoin the team today and, you know, I'm ready to go," Woll said following Friday's practice. Berube did not confirm a starter for Saturday's game, but has been impressed with Woll's preparation, as he works his way back into game shape."
Coach Craig Berube reshuffled lines at practice and emphasized a low-to-high structure with improved puck movement and exits. Matthew Knies and Brandon Carlo received maintenance days but remain available for Saturday's game.
