Maple Leafs' Fraser Minten: Called up from AHL

Minten was recalled from AHL Toronto on Thursday.

The Maple Leafs placed John Tavares (lower body) on injured reserve in a corresponding move. Minten had two goals and two assists over 11 games in an earlier stint with Toronto. He had five goals and 10 points across 16 AHL appearances before his recall. Look for Minten to have a middle-six role when the Leafs host New Jersey on Thursday.
