As the preseason continues for the Toronto Maple Leafs, it seems more and more likely that the team will move on from Pierre Engvall. Now that a hip injury lists him as day-to-day, he may not get an opportunity to prove that he’s deserving of a roster spot this season.
Pierre Engvall had been practicing on a line with Wayne Simmonds and Kirill Semyonov during training camp but wasn’t able to debut with the line during the Toronto Maple Leafs second preseason game against the Montreal Canadiens on Monday night because of his hip injury.
Ilya Mikeyev got into his second preseason game in a row by taking Engvall’s spot on the line.
