With Martin Erat getting hurt last night, Washington has recalled Joey Crabb and Tom Wilson.
Crabb had five goals in five games for Hershey Bears of #AHL during the Calder Cup playoffs. He had just two goals in 28 games with Washington this season.
Brian Burke, President and General Manager of the Toronto Maple Leafs, announced Tuesday that the hockey club has recalled forward Joey Crabb from the Toronto Marlies of the American Hockey League. The Leafs also announced that forward Matt Frattin has been assigned to the Marlies.
Crabb has dominated the AHL with seven goals and 15 points over his first nine games, flanking top prospect Joe Colborne. He should add a more offensive touch to the Leafs third line.
Defencemen Keith Aulie and Matt Lashoff and forwards Darryl Boyce, Joey Crabb and Mike Zigomanis were all dropped from the Leafs roster on Monday as GM Brian Burke got his team down to the 23-man roster. Lashoff, Boyce and Crabb are on waivers in order to go to the minors.
No immediate fantasy hockey value while on waivers.
