Corrado will play for the Toronto Maple Leafs when they play the New York Rangers on Thursday, his second appearance for the Leafs this season.
All it took for him to get into the lineup was an injury to Morgan Rielly. Not because Roman Polak and Matt Hunwick are bad, but because the Leafs have no other option with Martin Marincin still hurt.
It’s a situation that Corrado will need to make the most of because it doesn’t seem like Babcock thinks too much of the young defender.
The Leafs have spent the better part of two seasons mangling his career trajectory while Corrado watches from afar.
