Spezza scored the game-winning goal Saturday in a 2-0 victory over Calgary.
EDGE Analysis
The shot was perfect -- Spezza threaded a puck-sized needle with a shot that went far-side shelf over David Rittich's glove. The shot was patented Spezza. The guy's hands are intact, even if his feet are slowing more. His ice time jumped Saturday to just over 12 minutes, which is a couple more than usual. He deserved it. Spezza now has a goal in back-to-back games.

Spezza dished out three assists with two shots in Wednesday's 6-1 victory over the Oilers. He also went 8-4 (66.7 percent) on faceoffs.
EDGE Analysis
Toronto's fourth line of Spezza, Jimmy Vesey (two goals) and Travis Boyd (two assists) were on fire in this one, combining for seven points. Spezza assisted on both of Vesey's tallies before setting up a Zach Hyman power-play strike in the third to round out the scoring. The 37-year-old has contributed five goals and 10 assists in 23 games.

Spezza posted an assist and two hits in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Canadiens.
EDGE Analysis
Spezza set up Alex Kerfoot for an insurance tally in the third period. The assist was Spezza's third in the last four games. The 37-year-old forward has 11 points, 26 shots on goal and a minus-2 rating through 18 appearances, mostly in a fourth-line role with some power-play duties.

Spezza was promoted from the taxi squad and will play in Monday's game versus the Canucks.
EDGE Analysis
Spezza already cleared waivers this season, so he'll likely bounce between the taxi squad and the active roster often this year. The 37-year-old has been excellent so far, recording eight points through 11 games, so he'll likely stay in the lineup for the foreseeable future.

Spezza was demoted to the taxi squad Sunday, CBS Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
With eight points in 11 games this season, including a hat trick on Feb. 4, Spezza's demotion to the taxi squad is most likely a paper move. The veteran forward could be promoted again before Monday's tilt with the Canucks.

Spezza was assigned to Toronto's taxi squad Friday, per CBS.
EDGE Analysis
This is almost certainly just a paper move, as it's hard to believe coach Sheldon Keefe would bench Spezza following his three-goal performance against the Canucks on Thursday.

Spezza scored three times, including one on the power play, on five shots Thursday in a 7-3 win over the Canucks. He also went 7-3 in the faceoff circle for good measure.
EDGE Analysis
The 37-year-old turned back the clock with his performance against Vancouver, scoring a goal in all three periods to lead Toronto's offensive explosion. Spezza had just one assist through his first five games of the season, but he's suddenly come alive with four goals and three helpers in his last five. Fantasy managers should consider adding him and riding out the hot streak.

The Maple Leafs added Spezza to the active roster and he's expected to suit up in Thursday's game against Vancouver, per CBS Sports.
EDGE Analysis
Spezza was designated for the taxi squad by the Maple Leafs on Monday, but he got the opportunity to return to the active roster. In nine games this season, the veteran has amassed five points and nine shots over that span. He'll enter the lineup on the fourth line for Thursday's game.

Spezza was designated for the taxi squad Sunday, TSN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Spezza has four points in his last four games while averaging 1:26 of ice time with the man advantage, so fantasy players can expect him to be elevated back to the active roster ahead of Thursday's clash with the Canucks.
