Mermis (lower body) was placed on waivers Tuesday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

EDGE Analysis

Mermis had one goal, five shots on net, nine blocked shots and eight hits in 11 NHL outings this campaign before landing on injured reserve. Assuming he clears, he will probably report to AHL Toronto. Mermis hasn't earned a point in three minor-league appearances this season.

Mermis (lower body) was assigned to AHL Toronto on Monday for a conditioning assignment.

EDGE Analysis

Mermis has missed the last 15 games due to injury. He has collected one goal, five shots on net, nine blocked shots and eight hits in 11 NHL outings this season. Mermis hasn't earned a point in two AHL appearances during the 2025-26 campaign.

Mermis (lower body) was placed on injured reserve Wednesday, retroactive to Dec. 8.

EDGE Analysis

The 31-year-old defender will miss about a month after exiting Monday's game against the Lightning in the third period, Lance Hornby of The Toronto Sun reports. The Maple Leafs recalled Henry Thrun from AHL Toronto in a corresponding move. Thrun will probably enter the lineup for Thursday's game against San Jose, but Philippe Myers could also see some additional playing time in Mermis' absence.

Mermis (lower body) was unable to finish Monday's 2-0 win over the Lightning, and head coach Craig Berube said that the defenseman will be evaluated Tuesday, David Alter of The Hockey News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Mermis was forced out of the contest during the final frame after taking a knee-on-knee hit from Gage Goncalves, who received a major penalty and a game misconduct as a result of the play. Mermis recorded one shot on goal and one block in 10:34 of ice time prior to departing. The 31-year-old can be considered day-to-day until his status is updated ahead of Thursday's home matchup against San Jose.

Mermis scored a goal in Thursday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Blue Jackets.

EDGE Analysis

Mermis got the Maple Leafs on the board at 14:12 of the second period. This was the defenseman's first point in six NHL appearances this season. He's played primarily on the third pairing and the penalty kill, so don't expect significant offense moving forward. Mermis hadn't scored since the 2023-24 campaign when he netted a career-best three goals with the Wild.

Mermis has been recalled from AHL Toronto by the Maple Leafs, the team announced Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

The injury to Chris Tanev was serious enough to land him on injured reserve, and the corresponding move made was to bring Mermis up from the AHL. The 31-year-old has appeared in just three games between the AHL and NHL levels so far this season, recording no points in any of them. He will likely just serve as depth for now.

Mermis was reassigned to AHL Toronto on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Mermis had no points and one shot while logging 13:12 of ice time in his season debut with the Maple Leafs on Oct. 24. He followed that up by being a healthy scratch in Toronto's past three games. Mermis' demotion corresponds with Chris Tanev (concussion) being activated off injured reserve.

Mermis was recalled from AHL Toronto on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Mermis was held without a point in two AHL games this season before his recall. He will likely be the Maple Leafs sixth or seventh defenseman while Chris Tanev is out of action with an upper-body injury, depending on whether head coach Craig Berube decides to go with Philippe Myers or Mermis on the blue line.

Mermis was placed on waivers by the Maple Leafs, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Mermis will likely begin the season with AHL Toronto, where he had seven assists in 32 regular-season appearances last campaign. The 31-year-old did get into four games between his time with Utah and the Maple Leafs during the 2024-25 regular season, picking up one assist, but Mermis isn't likely to return to the NHL this year unless the Maple Leafs' defensive corps is dealing with injury troubles.

Mermis signed a two-year, $1.625 million contract with Toronto on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Mermis had one assist, six shots on goal, three hits and four blocked shots in four NHL regular-season appearances between Toronto and Utah in 2024-25. He also earned seven helpers in 32 regular-season outings for AHL Toronto last campaign. Mermis may occupy a depth spot on the Maple Leafs' roster going into the 2025-26 campaign.
