Leafs have signed Alex Biega and Carl Dahlstrom on defence.
— James Mirtle (@mirtle) July 28, 2021 Biega, 33, is a veteran defender who’s been on the fringes of the NHL for a while. He got into thirteen games for the Detroit Red Wings last season, so there’s not much reason to expect an everyday player, but he’s a reliable defensive presence who can either take up time in the pressbox or be a steadying presence on the Marlies.
