Nobody would have ever thought that Denis Malgin was going to make the Toronto Maple Leafs roster over Nick Robertson, but here we are.
Denis Malgin, the 25-year-old winger from Switzerland is officially back as a member of the Toronto Maple Leafs and it’s hard to believe.
In February, 2020, the Leafs traded Mason Marchment for Malgin, straight up. It was somewhat of a nothing trade, as Marchment was becoming an “old prospect” for the Toronto Marlies, but at the same time, I never really understood it.
As someone who followed the Marlies closely, Marchment was seemingly getting better every season he played.
