Toronto Maple Leafs: Why Not Call Up Liljegren Instead?

Per a report from Sportsnet’s Craig Johnston, Johnsson will make his NHL debut tonight against the Dallas Stars. He’s having a solid season this year with the Marlies and has posted 26 goals and 28 assists so far.

On the other hand, Rosen is being recalled on emergency basis. The move to recall Rosen is most likely due to Nikita Zaitsev‘s flu-like symptoms. Rosen appeared in four games with the Toronto Maple Leafs earlier this season.

Toronto Maple Leafs fans might be a bit frustrated with the choice to call up Rosen over prospect like Timothy Liljegren.
