Just a few days ago, the Toronto Maple Leafs sent Easton Cowan to the Toronto Marlies, while Jacob Quillan was included on the team's opening night roster.
With just hours to spare before the Toronto Maple Leafs' opening night game against the Montreal Canadiens, the team has decided to make a massive roster decision.
Jacob Quillan has been sent down to the Toronto Marlies, while Easton Cowan has been recalled from the AHL. This is a massive move, and one that not many people saw coming.

It was previously reported that Quillan was being used by the Leafs as a method of circumventing the salary cap. Now, it seems like the Leafs have other plans.
Perhaps head coach Craig Berube came to his senses and realized that he wants Cowan on the roster, and that he can do some serious damage on the fourth line.
Of course, Scott Laughton remains out with an injury. However, with Nicolas Roy and Steven Lorentz on the fourth line, we could see flashes of brilliance from the kid.
Toronto Maple Leafs play the Montreal Canadiens tonight
As many of you know already, tonight is the first game of the regular season, with the Leafs taking on the Montreal Canadiens.
This is going to be a sensational matchup for everyone involved, and we are looking forward to seeing the Leafs get back in action.
Last season, the Leafs lost their first game of the season against the Canadiens, but that does not have to happen all over again.
Anthony Stolarz will be the likely starter, and fans are expecting him to continue his dominance from last season.
