Taxi squad

Do players who are waiver eligible have to clear to be moved from the taxi squad to the lineup?

Most likely, nothing solid yet. Leafs could put dell and Boyd in as scratches. Then swap out waiver exempt players.

I'd expect to see the Leafs taxi squad be 1 lower than the maximum allowed. There's a lot of cap shenanigans to be had moving a waiver exempt player to the taxi squad on off days to maximize cap space available at the deadline.

Dell would probs be on the Taxi squad and it makes to much sense

Keefe can use him for practice and when Campbell goes in Dell can be the backup giving freddie extra rest and should Campbell struggle Dell can relieve him.

Robertson would probs go back to the OHL in Febuary as with these covid times ELCs are important and Dubas dont want to burn it nor does he not want the kid sitting and not playing

Also all reports are the taxi squad working the same way as if the player were in the AHL. That would make Robertson ineligible for it.
