As expected, Michael Hutchinson has cleared waivers, and unlike Martin Marincin, who is still on the Leafs, he’ll need to be immediately sent to the AHL in order to make room for Zach Hyman.
Hutchinson, who had a successful AHL season last year, joins rookie Joseph Woll, who has so far been used mostly in the second half of back-to-backs, so they’ll have lots to talk about.
The Marlies have just finished their Royal Winter Fair road trip, and play The Texas Stars at home this weekend on Saturday and Sunday. Both games are at 4 p.
