One of the biggest offseason questions for Toronto Maple Leafs fans is without a doubt where top prospect Timothy Liljegren will spend the 2017-18 season. Drafted 17th overall out of Rögle, Sweden in this year’s draft, Liljegren is eligible to play in the AHL. So far, all we knew was that he will attend training camp in Toronto and then see what’s best for him.
It might be telling, however, that Rögle does not appear to be planning with their 18-year-old blueliner. Although Liljegren is listed on the club's roster on their official website, he is not taking part in preseason action.
