Samsonov was called up from AHL Toronto on Wednesday.
Samsonov, who was put on waivers Dec. 31 and sent to the AHL after clearing, didn't participate in a minor-league game during his time with the Marlies. He's struggled terribly with the Maple Leafs this year, posting a 5-2-6 record, 3.94 GAA and .862 save percentage in 15 appearances. At this point what his role with the big club will look like going forward remains unclear.
