Engvall has 12 goals and nine assists in 58 games for the Maple Leafs this season, and was on a one-year deal with Toronto signed last summer, worth $2.25 million.

Engvall had 42 goals and 41 assists in 226 games for the Maple Leafs in his career.

The move comes less than an hour after the team had shipped defenceman Rasmus Sandin to the Washington Capitals in exchange for Erik Gustafsson and a first-round pick, and just moments after the Leafs had reportedly acquired Luke Schenn from Vancouver.
