Sill who was acquired from the Penguins in the Daniel Winnik trade yesterday will make his Leafs debut tonight vs. the Flyers. Sill is expected to skate on a line with Peter Holland and David Booth.
Trade
The Penguins have traded Zach Sill, a 2016 2nd round pick and a 2015 4th round pick to the Maple Leafs for Daniel Winnik.
Sill, 26, is a scrappy player, who is just a salary dump for the Penguins and also a pending unrestricted free agent. The remainder of the season will likely serve as a tryout for the Maple Leafs heading into 2015-16. He has terrible possession numbers though, so the new regime in Toronto may not like that.
Injury
Sill (upper-body) will return to the Penguins lineup on Wednesday.
Sill has missed the last 11 games with an upper-body injury, but will be back in the lineup tonight vs. the Bruins. Sill will replace Marcel Goc, who is out with an illness. Sill has no points with a minus-1 rating in 25 games this season.
Injury
The Penguins have placed Zach Sill (upper-body) on injured reserve.
