Maple Leafs' Alex Steeves: Recalled under emergency conditions
Steeves was elevated from AHL Toronto under emergency conditions Tuesday.
Steeves' promotion would seem to indicate that there is an injury, or at least a game-time decision, for a member of the Leafs' forward group. According to David Alter of The Hockey News, both Max Domi and William Nylander took maintenance days Monday, which isn't normally a significant concern, but it would appear perhaps there is more than meets the eye here. If Steeves does suit up versus Ottawa on Tuesday, it will likely be in a bottom-six role, though the team is already without Auston Matthews (upper body) and Max Pacioretty (lower body), so a second-line spot could open up for Steeves.

Maple Leafs' Alex Steeves: AHL bound

Maple Leafs' Alex Steeves: Back in lineup Thursday
Steeves (lower body) will return to the lineup Thursday in Detroit.
Steeves has been out a week with the injury. Steeves scored the lone goal in a 2-1 preseason loss versus Ottawa on Sept. 24 and has not played since then. The 24-year-old inked a one-year, two-way contract during the offseason and he is expected to start the season at the AHL level with the Marlies, barring a flurry of injuries to the Maple Leafs up front. He was without a point in his one regular-season game with Toronto in 2023-24, but managed 27 goals and 57 points in 65 regular-season appearances with the Marlies.

Maple Leafs' Alex Steeves: Dealing with injury
Steeves (lower body) is listed as day-to-day and will not skate Friday.
Steeves faces an uphill battle in his fight to crack Toronto's roster in 2024-25, and being injured only serves as a setback. The 24-year-old signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Leafs in August. Steeves will more than likely begin the season with AHL Toronto -- the Minnesota native generated 57 points in 65 regular-season contests with the Marlies in 2023-24.

The 24-year-old had a big campaign with AHL Toronto last season, scoring 27 times while adding 30 assists in 65 appearances. He will battle for a spot on the fourth line in training camp, but he is likely headed back to the minors to start the 2024-25 season.
