Toronto Maple Leafs Assign Fraser Minten To Toronto Marlies

The Toronto Maple Leafs announced they have activated forward Fraser Minten from non-roster designation and assigned him to their AHL affiliate Toronto Marlies.

Minten suffered a high-ankle sprain in September during the Prospect Showdown in Montreal that forced him to miss all of training camp and the beginning of the season.

The 20-year-old went pointless in four games with the Maple Leafs last season before being returned to the WHL. He went on to post 48 points in 43 games with the Kamloops Blazers and Saskatoon Blades.

The Vancouver, BC, native captained Team Canada at the 2024 World Junior Championship and notched three points in five games.

Minten will provide even more depth to a Marlies team that sits atop the AHL’s North Division with a record of 6-0-0-1 to begin the season. His first opportunity to suit up with the team comes on Saturday Nov. 2 against the Cleveland Monsters.

Minten was selected in the second round of the 2022 draft by the Maple Leafs, his entry-level contract runs through the 2026-27 season.
