In a perfect world this move is being made because a number of Leafs' forwards without waiver eligibility have had their bodies donated to science and the Marlies need depth to replace the call-ups of [Tyler Bozak](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/71017/Tyler%5FBozak?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com), [Jiri Tlusty](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/54287/Jiri%5FTlusty?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com), and [Christian Hanson](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/70788/Christian%5FHanson?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com). If I was a complete fraud I might call this the first domino but honestly it's hard to envision it as anything more than giving the Marlies options with their own roster.
