Robertson scored a goal and added two PIM in Tuesday's 6-2 loss to the Blue Jackets. - Robertson broke through for his first goal of the year, but it was far too late to make a difference. The winger has added nine shots on net, six hits, three blocked shots, two PIM and a plus-2 rating over seven appearances. The good news is Robertson is seeing steady third-line usage, but that's a role that's too small on a top-heavy team for him to make much of an impact. He's also on the second power-play unit, but there's little chance of him moving up the lineup barring a slump from a top-six forward. |

It's not yet clear whether his injury will impact his availability for Opening Night against Montreal on Wednesday. When he's healthy, the 23-year-old will likely take on a bottom-six role for the Maple Leafs. |

Robertson agreed to terms on a one-year, $875,000 contract with Toronto on Tuesday. - Robertson had reportedly submitted a trade request as a restricted free agent this offseason but it seems the two sides have come to an agreement on a short-term deal.

For now, the California native figures to slot into a bottom-six role but could challenge for more opportunities as the season goes along. |

His reassignment made room for Calle Jarnkrok's (hand) activation from long-term injured reserve.

It doesn't appear he'll have any limitations, so the 22-year-old winger will have a chance to win a job in camp. Unfortunately for Robertson, the Maple Leafs boast one of the deepest forward groups in the league, so he'll likely start 2023-24 with AHL Toronto unless he puts forth a really impressive performance. His main competition for playing time will likely be Noah Gregor. |
