Colton Orr was called up from the minors on Saturday January 28.

Colton Orr wants to alter his game while he's in the minors. "The game's evolving and changing, so you kind of have to go with it," Orr said. "I'm never going to give up. I'm going to keep working and do what it takes . . . and see where it goes. There's still room for power forwards, checking forwards, a little fight once in a while." Orr's demotion has sparked a debate about the future of enforcers in the NHL, but they're certainly not gone just because Orr is. After all, Zenon Konopka and Zac Rinaldo aren't employed based on their ability to find the back of the net. That being said, Orr would certainly have more value - both to fantasy owners and just in general - if he was also capable of chipping in a bit offensively. Unfortunately, while Orr might be willing to modify his game, we remain skeptical of his chances of success given that he has just 20 points in 378 career NHL contests.

Colton Orr has successfully cleared waivers. Orr is expected to report to the AHL Toronto Marlies. Orr can get over 200 penalty minutes if he plays in a full season, but obviously he's not going to get anything close to that with the Leafs in 2011-12. Orr is under contract through the 2012-13 campaign.

Colton Orr has been placed on waivers by the Toronto Maple Leafs. Orr is a great source of penalty minutes, but the Leafs haven't used him much this season. He comes with a $1 million annual cap hit and he's signed through the 2012-13 campaign, so we'd be surprised if anyone picks him up off of waivers.

Colton Orr (concussion) has been given the green light to play. "I've taken part in the team skates (the past two weeks) and I'm ready to go for training camp and start the season," Orr said. He hasn't played since January 20th due to the concussion.
