Maple Leafs' Fraser Minten: Posts power-play helper
Fraser Minten logged a power-play assist in Sunday's 3-2 win over Utah.Minten has a goal and an assist over his first two NHL appearances this season. He didn't have any points over his first four career games in 2023-24. The 20-year-old is getting a chance to play as injuries have piled up among Toronto's forwards. He's filling a third-line role, but Minten could be headed back to AHL Toronto once Auston Matthews (upper body) or Max Domi (lower body) can return.

Maple Leafs' Fraser Minten: First career goal a game-winner
Fraser Minten scored the game-winning goal in Wednesday's 3-0 victory over the Golden Knights.In just his fifth career NHL game and his first of the season, the 2022 second-round pick opened the scoring by snapping home a slick feed from William Nylander midway through the first period. That was all the offense Joseph Woll would need on the night. Minten missed the beginning of the campaign with an ankle injury, but in five games for AHL Toronto after getting healthy he recorded two goals and four points. The 20-year-old has the skills, speed and hockey IQ to fill a middle-six role for the Toronto Maple Leafs while the team deals with a rash of injuries, and he even saw some power-play shifts Wednesday. Minten could have some short-term fantasy value until the Toronto forward ranks are closer to full strength.

Maple Leafs' Fraser Minten: Called up from minors
Fraser Minten was recalled from AHL Toronto on Tuesday.Minten's promotion comes as David Kampf (lower body) was placed on injured reserve in a corresponding move. With Auston Matthews (upper body) and Calle Jarnkrok (groin) already on IR, the Leafs find themselves rather thin in terms of experienced center depth. The 20-year-old Minten figures to slot into a bottom-six role for at least Wednesday's matchup with Vegas. In the minors this season, the Vancouver native is putting up solid numbers with two goals and two assists in five outings.

Maple Leafs' Fraser Minten: Lands on injured reserve
Fraser Minten (ankle) was placed on injured reserve Monday.Minten sustained a high-ankle sprain during a prospects game in mid-September, and he'll miss time to begin the regular season. It's not yet clear whether he'll join the Toronto Maple Leafs once he's healthy, but it wouldn't be surprising to see him spend time in the minors once he's able to return. The 20-year-old logged 48 points in 43 WHL appearances last season.

Maple Leafs' Fraser Minten: Dealing with high-ankle sprain
Fraser Minten is facing weeks on the sideline due to a high-ankle sprain, Joshua Kloke of The Athletic reports Wednesday.Minten was a long shot to make the Opening Night roster even prior to getting hurt, but now he almost certainly won't be with the team when it faces the Canadiens on Oct. 9. The 20-year-old winger racked up 48 points in 43 WHL contests with Kamploops and Saskatoon last year, the type of offensive display that saw him drafted 38th overall by Toronto in the 2022 NHL Draft. Look for Minten to start the season in the minors with the Marlies once given the all-clear.

Maple Leafs' Fraser Minten: Returning to juniors
Fraser Minten was reassigned to WHL Kamloops on Friday.Minten played in four games for the Leafs this season, in which he recorded three shots, three hits and two PIM while averaging 11:26 of ice time. The 19-year-old center's return to the junior ranks shouldn't come as a surprise after he was a healthy scratch for the previous three games. Pontus Holmberg should see more minutes with Minten out of the picture.

Maple Leafs' Fraser Minten: Makes Opening Night roster
Fraser Minten has made Toronto's Opening Night roster, NHL.com reports.Minten, a 2022 second-round pick, performed well enough in camp to stick with the big club for the start of the 2023-24 campaign, but there's still a chance he'll return to the WHL before hitting the 10-game mark with the Toronto Maple Leafs in order to avoid burning a year off his entry-level contract. Look for Minten to skate on the third line during Wednesday's season opener versus Montreal.
