Maple Leafs recall Connor Brown on emergency basis

It appears as though Connor Brown will be the 10th rookie to debut for the Toronto Maple Leafs this season.

The club announced that Brown has been recalled from the Toronto Marlies on an emergency basis.

He's expected to fill in for Leo Komarov, who's dealing with a lower-body injury.

Brown has nine goals and 15 assists in 28 games in a second professional season that had been interrupted by a significant ankle injury.

The 22-year-old was named to the American Hockey League's All-Rookie Team last season, contributing 21 goals and 61 points.
