All of that is as expected, but that leaves a couple of questions: where’s Brooks Laich and is Brandon Prust still on his PTO?
Laich also cleared waivers, but is still on the roster for now

It is also reported that while Laich was playing extra forward at the Leafs practice today, Prust wasn’t there. He is still on his PTO.
The Leafs have until tomorrow to decide who to cut. They can do the expected and release Prust and send Laich to the AHL, or they can put someone on IR.
