Recalled/Assigned: Toronto Maple Leafs recall forward Mark Arcobello from Marlies

[Bluelines]

Didn't see a thread for this recall.

The Toronto Maple Leafs recalled forward Mark Arcobello from their American Hockey League affiliate on Wednesday.

The 27-year-old native of Milford, Conn., has played in seven games with the Maple Leafs this season and has yet to record a point.

He has 27 points (12 goals, 15 assists) in 23 games with the Toronto Marlies, good for seventh on the AHL scoring list entering Wednesday’s games.

Arcobello played for four different NHL teams last season. He made his NHL debut with the Edmonton Oilers in 2012-’13.

He has 49 points (21-28) in 126 career NHL regular-season games.

Bet he out scores Phil tonight.

he was recalled because byron froese was injured his foot/ankle last night during the game

Now he's back down with Bibeau. Looks like Reimer might be ready to backup.

"The Toronto Maple Leafs loaned forward Mark Arcobello and goaltender Antoine Bibeau to the Toronto Marlies of the American Hockey League on Sunday."

How did we send him back down without waivers?

How did we send him back down without waivers?

When a player clears waivers and is sent down and then is called up again, he does not have to clear waivers to be sent down again unless he has played ten games or has been "up" for 30 days.

Guessing Byron Froese lower body injury was minor then and Arcobello going back down is likely because Sam Carrick is injured currently so marlies needed someone to play center on the top line.

My short memory had me expecting more from him after that successful stint in the AHL. I think it's simply that his skating just isn't exceptional enough to make an impact in the NHL as a smaller player who plays his certain style. He's true tweener, a great AHL player, yet unable to fill a role in the NHL.

Marlies also played a game last night while the Leafs didn't.

Bibeau and Arcobello both got sent down/down the street, played the game last night and were called back up today to practice with the team in case they're needed Wednesday (Arcobello likely will be, Bibeau still depends on how Reimer is feeling).
