Michael Pezzetta Set for NHL Debut with Hometown Maple Leafs

Forward Michael Pezzetta has been recalled from the AHL's Toronto Marlies and is set to make his debut for his hometown Maple Leafs on the fourth line. Pezzetta, who signed a two-year, $1.575 million deal, has recorded four goals and six assists in 37 AHL games this season. After a long journey through the minors and 200 NHL games with Montreal, he looks to provide energy for a Toronto squad currently searching for a spark during a difficult stretch of the season.
