Biega was traded to Nashville from Toronto on Monday for future considerations, Darren Dreger of TSN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Biega has appeared in just two games for the Leafs this season, so fantasy players shouldn't be expecting him to see significant opportunities with Nashville either. Still, the 33-year-old Biega does have 243 games of NHL experience, in which he recorded four goals and 38 assists, and should provide decent cover if the Predators need to call up a player from the minors.

Biega was reassigned to AHL Toronto on Thursday, per CapFriendly.
EDGE Analysis
Biega has made just two appearances at the NHL level, so he shouldn't be expected to make much of an impact for the Maple Leafs this season.

Biega was assigned to AHL Toronto on Saturday, per CapFriendly.
EDGE Analysis
Biega swapped places with Carl Dahlstrom for Saturday's game versus the Islanders. Biega is unlikely to see more than a third-pairing role if or when he returns to the active roster.

Biega will be promoted from the taxi squad to the active roster and draw into the lineup Wednesday against the Rangers, Joshua Kloke of The Athletic Toronto reports.
EDGE Analysis
Biega has appeared in one 2020-21 NHL contest, logging 13:53 of ice time during the 6-0 victory over Ottawa on Jan. 1. The 33-year-old has recorded four assists over 15 appearances with AHL Toronto this season. He will fill the vacancy left behind in Jake Muzzin's (concussion) absence.

The Maple Leafs reassigned Biega to the taxi squad Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Biega logged 14 minutes of ice time Jan. 1, his first NHL game of the season, after being recalled from the taxi squad. It would likely take more COVID-19 issues or injuries to Toronto's defense corps for Biega to play NHL minutes again this year.

Biega was promoted to the active roster and will play Saturday versus the Senators, David Alter of The Hockey News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Biega will take the place of Jake Muzzin, who needs a little more conditioning time after coming off of the COVID-19 protocols list. This will be Biega's Maple Leafs debut.

Biega was promoted from AHL Toronto to the taxi squad Sunday, CapFriendly reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 33-year-old blueliner appeared in 13 games with Detroit last season but hasn't seen any NHL action during the 2021-22 campaign. Biega could be on the active roster for Wednesday's game against the Penguins.

Biega was assigned to AHL Toronto on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Biega has been loaned to the AHL, where he has recorded four points through 15 appearances this season. He's yet to suit up in NHL action in 2021-22.

Biega was recalled by the Maple Leafs on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Rasmus Sandin is expected to miss multiple weeks with a lower-body injury, so Biega could be in for an extended stay with the big club. The 33-year-old vet has picked up four assists through 15 AHL appearances this season.

Biega signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Maple Leafs on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Biega spent large chunks of last season on the Red Wings' taxi squad, which is not an encouraging sign of what to expect from the 33-year-old. He could compete for a bottom-pairing role with the Maple Leafs, but a two-way contract suggests he may spend more time with the AHL's Marlies than the parent club.
