Breaking: Leafs place recently acquired forward on waivers.

The Toronto Maple Leafs have cut this experiment very short.

After claiming former Boston Bruins forward Seth Griffith on the waiver wire earlier in the regular season, the Leafs have placed him right back on waivers after just using him in just three games.

Griffith had shown flashes of brilliance in Boston but those felt like they mostly came in the preseason, and he never found a way to produce consistently in the regular season. With Toronto it wasn't much different, with Griffith picking up no points in his three game tryout with the Maple Leafs.

It seems likely that he will be sent down to the American Hockey League's Toronto Marlies should he clear waivers, but whether or not he is claimed by another team remains to be seen.
