The Toronto Maple Leafs have made a small roster move.
Forward Vinni Lettieri has been reassigned to the AHL Marlies and forward Ryan Tverberg has been recalled, the team announced Tuesday.
Lettieri, 31, has appeared in nine games this season for the NHL club, recording one goal. His last appearance came on Nov. 8 against the New Jersey Devils when he had one shot in 8:30 of ice time.
Meanwhile, the 21-year-old Tverberg has the chance to make his season debut with the Maple Leafs.
The Richmond Hill, Ont. native has two NHL games under his belt, both last season. He has yet to record an NHL point, but has seven points in 14 games for the Marlies this year.
The Maple Leafs look to snap a three-game losing streak when they host the Colorado Avalanche on Tuesday at 7 p.m. ET / 5 p.m. PCT.
