Maple Leafs' Dennis Hildeby: Shipped down to minors
Hildeby was reassigned to AHL Toronto on Friday.
Hildeby's demotion comes as Anthony Stolarz (upper body) returns to the crease against Vegas on Friday. With Toronto having a full complement of healthy backstops for the first time this season, the 24-year-old Hildeby was the odd man out, and he figures to spend the rest of the season in the minors -- unless another problem comes up for one of the Leafs' backstops.

Maple Leafs' Dennis Hildeby: Needed in relief Monday
Hildeby stopped all eight shots he faced in relief of Joseph Woll in Monday's 6-3 loss to the Wild.
Hildeby played the third period, and the Wild's lone tally in that frame was a Marcus Foligno empty-netter. The 24-year-old Hildeby remains at 5-6-4 with a 2.90 GAA and a .910 save percentage over 19 outings. His time with the big club could be nearing a close, as Anthony Stolarz (upper body) started a conditioning stint with AHL Toronto on Tuesday. Once Stolarz is healthy, Hildeby is likely to return to the minor-league team.

Hildeby made 22 saves in a 2-1 overtime win over the Flyers on Thursday.

Maple Leafs' Dennis Hildeby: Wins in relief after starter pulled
Hildeby made 17 saves in relief Thursday in a 6-5 win over the Jets.
He replaced starter Joseph Woll, who was pulled after allowing four goals and with the Leafs down 4-1. Hildeby got plenty of support in the comeback win, which snapped a personal 0-3-2 slump. Anthony Stolarz (upper body) resumed skating Wednesday, but there is no timetable for his return. The Leafs are 4-0-1 in their last five games, and they appear to be surging. Hildeby's short-term outlook may be on the cusp of improving.

Maple Leafs' Dennis Hildeby: Abandoned by teammates
Hildeby made 25 saves on 29 shots in a 4-0 loss to the Capitals on Thursday.

Hildeby has had 10 pucks go past him in his last two starts, but somehow, he still sports a .918 save percentage in eight starts (12 games) this season.

However, he had been effective over his three prior starts, posting a 1.28 GAA and .958 save percentage despite a somewhat unlucky 1-0-2 record during that time.

Maple Leafs' Dennis Hildeby: Pulled after allowing six goals
Hildeby allowed six goals on 32 shots before being pulled in the third period of Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Oilers.
It was a rough night for Hildeby at the hands of Connor McDavid (two goals, one assist), Vasily Podkolzin (two goals) and Leon Draisaitl (three helpers). It was his fourth straight start (1-1-2), and despite looking like he belongs in the NHL, Hildeby may be struggling with his increased workload. However, the potential return of Joseph Woll (lower body) ahead of Tuesday's home matchup against Chicago could remedy that issue.
