Dropped down to minors Hildeby was reassigned to AHL Toronto on Friday.

Impact Hildeby has made three appearances for the Leafs this season in which he is sporting a 2-1-0 record, 3.69 GAA and .875 save percentage. With Toronto entering a back-to-back, it seems the team was more comfortable utilizing Matt Murray, who was called up in a corresponding move, versus the Sabres or Islanders on Friday or Saturday, respectively, than the 23-year-old Hildeby.

Earns win Sunday Hildeby stopped 24 of 27 shots in Sunday's 5-3 win over the Sabres.

Impact Hildeby made his third start of the season Sunday and had a strong showing. He'll remain as a backup going forward, meaning his fantasy upside will be limited to being a streaming option in specific slates. Hildeby has gone 2-1-0 with a 3.68 GAA and an .875 save percentage in his three appearances in 2024-25. Hildeby will remain as the Maple Leafs' backup as long as Anthony Stolarz (lower body) remains on IR.

Called up by NHL club Hildeby was recalled by the Maple Leafs on Friday, Darren Dreger of TSN reports.

Impact Anthony Stolarz exited Thursday's game against the Ducks due to a lower-body injury, and the Maple Leafs are still awaiting the results of testing to determine the extent of the issue. Hildeby will join the NHL club to provide additional depth in the net, but Joseph Woll will likely serve as the No. 1 netminder if Stolarz is forced to miss time.

Sent down to minors Hildeby was reassigned to AHL Toronto on Thursday.

Impact Hildeby's demotion comes as fellow backstop Joseph Woll (groin) was activated off injured reserve in a corresponding move. The 23-year-old Hildeby saw action in two NHL games to start the season, registering a 1-1-0 record, 4.03 GAA and .869 save percentage. With Woll healthy, Hildeby will be hard-pressed to see any more minutes in the NHL and figures to play the bulk of his 2024-25 games in the minors with the Marlies.

Overwhelmed by Blue Jackets Hildeby made 32 saves in a 6-2 loss to the Blue Jackets on Tuesday.

Impact It was the Hildebeast's NHL debut, and he showed why the Leafs see him in their future. He showed off his ability to go side-to-side and use his 6-foot-7 frame to stymie the Devils' snipers. Hildeby will back-up Anthony Stolarz until Joseph Woll (undisclosed) returns. He's a solid daily play given the strength of Toronto's lineup.

Expected to start Thursday Hildeby is expected to make his NHL debut in Thursday's road game against New Jersey, per David Alter of The Hockey News.

Impact Hildeby is getting this opportunity because Joseph Woll is unavailable due to a lower-body injury and Anthony Stolarz was in net Wednesday for Toronto's 1-0 loss to Montreal. The 23-year-old Hildeby did fare well in the AHL during the 2023-24 regular season, posting a 2.41 GAA and a .913 save percentage across 41 contests with the Marlies. However, the Devils are a great offensive team, ranking 12th last season with 3.22 goals per game. New Jersey has also scored a combine seven goals in two victories over Buffalo to begin the 2024-25 campaign.

Up from minors Hildeby was summoned from AHL Toronto on Wednesday, per Mark Masters of TSN.

Impact Hildeby had a 2.41 GAA and a .913 save percentage across 41 regular-season games with the AHL's Marlies in 2023-24. He's projected to serve as the backup goaltender behind Anthony Stolarz for Wednesday's road contest against Montreal because Joseph Woll is dealing with lower-body tightness. Woll hasn't been ruled out for Thursday's game against New Jersey, so this might end up being a brief stint in the NHL for Hildeby.

He was called up several times last year but didn't see any playing time in the NHL, and he'll likely spend most of this season with the AHL club.

Impact Per Masters, Hildeby is expected to be between the pipes from start to finish Saturday. The 23-year-old netminder saw some time with the Leafs last year, though ultimately didn't see any playing time as a depth option.
