{allcanada} Maple Leafs place forward Ben Smith on IR, recall Byron Froese

 

The Toronto Maple Leafs have placed Ben Smith on injured reserve, the team announced Wednesday.

In a corresponding move, Byron Froese has been recalled from AHL affiliate Toronto Marlies.

Smith was initially listed as day-to-day by head coach Mike Babcock due to an upper-body injury. He missed Monday's matchup against the Anaheim Ducks, as did fellow forward Tyler Bozak.

The 28-year-old has registered two goals and one assist in 28 games with the Maple Leafs this season.

Froese has been playing well with the Marlies this year, tallying 12 goals and five assists in 26 games this year. The 25-year-old spent more than half of 2015-16 with the Maple Leafs, recording two goals and three assists in 56 games.

The Maple Leafs are heading into back-to-back games against the Colorado Avalanche and Arizona Coyotes on Thursday and Friday night, respectively.
