Toronto Maple Leafs claim Seth Griffith (again), assign him to the Toronto Marlies

Griffith, a former London Knight, was originally claimed by Toronto the day before the season opener as the Leafs looked to find options for the final forward spot on the right wing (Nikita Soshnikov started on the Marlies due to an injury in camp). Griffith sat out the first six games as Mike Babcock got him acclimated in practice before he entered the lineup for three games in late October. He averaged just 9:28 a night over those three games, primarily skating alongside Ben Smith and Matt Martin. With Soshnikov returning at the start of November, Griffith sat out the next five games before getting passed through waivers, where he was claimed by the Panthers.
