Vinni Lettieri - NHL News & Rumors

Demoted to minors Lettieri was reassigned to AHL Toronto on Tuesday, David Alter of The Hockey News reports.

Impact Lettieri has managed just one point in nine NHL games this season while averaging 9:44 of ice time. In a corresponding move, the Leafs brought up Ryan Tverberg, who could be pressed into service against the Avalanche on Tuesday. This likely won't be the last time Lettieri shifts between leagues this year.

Impact Per Alter, Lettieri was expected to rejoin the Marlies on Sunday, but he'll ultimately stick with the Maple Leafs. While it's unclear whether the 31-year-old was officially sent down to the AHL, the decision to keep him in the NHL was likely impacted by Artur Akhtyamov's return to the AHL.

Returning to Marlies Lettieri was sent down to AHL Toronto on Saturday, per David Alter of The Hockey News.

Impact Lettieri was optioned back to the AHL in a corresponding move to Cole McWard's call-up. The latter was likely called up due to Morgan Rielly's injury Saturday, making Lettieri the top candidate in the forward group to be sent down. During his stint with the Maple Leafs, the 31-year-old Lettieri posted a goal, eight shots on net, 24 hits and nine blocked shots over eight appearances. He'll likely see more action in the NHL at a later date this season.
