Percy, 23, was a first round pick (25th overall) in 2011 but was not qualified by the Maple Leafs, so he signed in Pittsburgh. He has only appeared in 12 career NHL games, but has enjoyed a solid AHL career to this point. He had 24 points (4G / 20A) in 58 games with the Marlies last year and will be with Wilkes-Barre/Scranton to start 2016-17.
Percy was recalled this morning after Roman Polak was traded to San Jose this morning. Percy has registered 19 points (4G / 15A) in 43 games with the Marlies this season. He is expected to make his season debut on Tuesday—he had three assists in nine games with the Maple Leafs last year.
Percy, 21, had three assists in eight games with the Maple Leafs earlier in the season. With Toronto struggling mightily as of late, they recall Percy to provide a change of pace on the blue line.
Percy will join the team in Detroit and could be in the lineup tonight vs. the Red Wings. There is no word on if a Leafs' defenseman suffered an injury last night.
Percy has been recalled and sent down a ton lately, but he still is not expected to be more than an insurance seventh defenseman on the Leafs upcoming two-game road trip.
Percy did not play on Friday and was sent back so the Leafs could recall Sam Carrick after Joffrey Lupul broke his hand.
Percy, 21, was sent down after playing seven games with the Maple Leafs to start the season. He picked up three assists in those seven contests and is now back with the big-club as they prepare for an upcoming three-game road-trip (split by a home game vs. CHI). No word on if Percy will be in the lineup on Friday.
Percy had three assists in seven games in his brief stint with the Maple Leafs. He had served as healthy scratch in two out of the last four games. This should keep Jake Gardiner permanently.
Percy figures to stay in the OHL through this year and get a crack at the big club during next year's training camp. The 25th overall pick already registered 17 points through 18 games with the Mississauga St. Michael's Majors.
