Garret Sparks called up to Leafs

The goalie carousel spins on. Garret Sparks has been called up to the NHL and is on his way to Ottawa. No one knows why yet, however.

Sparks dressed last night in Syracuse as the backup in the Marlies game versus the Crunch. Antoine Bibeau was the goalie who faced 33 shots on goal in the 5-4 defeat.

The Leafs are playing the second of a back-to-back this evening and were expected to start newcomer Curtis McElhinney.

To sort the Marlies out for enough goalies, now that Jeff Glass is with the IceHogs and Karri Ramo has had more surgery, they turned to an old source for emergency help, Ryerson University.
