Maple Leafs Trim Training Camp RosterI don't think there are too many shockers here aside from maybe Oreskovic being cut so soon. The Marlies are shaping up to be a young squad at this point. It'll be interesting to see how the rest of camp plays out.
Brian Burke, president and general manager of the Toronto Maple Leafs, announced Saturday that the hockey club has trimmed its training camp roster.
The following players were assigned to the Toronto Marlies of the American Hockey League: Alex Berry, Darryl Boyce, Josh Engel, Andrew Engelage, Tom Galvin, Stefano Giliati, Richard Greenop, Juraj Mikus, Dale Mitchell, Phil Oreskovic, Todd Perry, James Reimer, Kyle Rogers, Joe Ryan, Greg Scott, Robert Slaney, and Mikhail Stefanovich.
The Maple Leafs assigned the following players to their respective junior clubs: Jesse Blacker (Windsor – OHL), Joel Champagne (P.E.I. – QMJHL), and Brandon Manning (Chilliwack – WHL).
Bill Thomas and Juha Uotila have been released from their Professional Try-Out contracts.
Toronto's next game is Tuesday against the Pittsburgh Penguins.
