With Casey Cizikas out for 3-to-4 weeks with a leg laceration, Bardreau returns to the NHL, where he has two points (1G / 1A) in nine career games. The 26-year-old has two goals and one assist in 29 AHL games this season.

Engvall has made a splash in his first NHL season, scoring seven goals with seven assists (14 points) in 35 games. The former seventh-round pick was over a point-per-game during his time in AHL this season and his two-year extension suggests that he's in Toronto's bottom-6 plans for 2021.

Cizikas suffered a cut on his leg in Tuesday's win over the Flyers and will miss at least three weeks. This is a huge blow for the Islanders, Cizikas often serves as a shutdown centre and is one of their top penalty killers. Cole Bardreau was recalled to take his spot on the roster.
